I have two routers connected to a single switch and both have internet connections. I have configured HSRP and VRRP as follows, This is a test bench I'm using so that's why I'm using both. The HSRP is working as normal on the GigabitEthernet 0/1 interface, but on the vlans they are both active. Here are the configs:

Cisco Router 1
interface GigabitEthernet0/0
ip address 10.21.6.10 255.255.255.0
ip nat outside
exit

interface GigabitEthernet0/1

Does anyone have any idea on why it would be doing this.

    If both are active, then they don't see each other as peers. Perhaps you are not trunking all the vlans between the two devices?

    To add more detail to Ron's comment, it sounds like the switch is dropping all vlan tags and only allowing the untagged traffic through.

  • I found the problem, my team member had set that port to receive monitor traffic and therefor it was not trunking any vlan traffic to the router. Once this was fixed everything started working. I should have been looking closer at the switch, thanks @RonTrunk
