I get this often on ISR routers with high CPU (2821's)

Depending on how long it lasts it can knock out streaming but that's
about all that notices.

Hi Jack,

There is a Cisco doc about troubleshooting HSRP problems which mentions that high CPU can cause HSRP flaps. http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk362/technologies_tech_note09186a0080094afd.shtml

Case Study 7 describes a scenario where two routers are connected to a shared stub LAN, with both supporting multicast and running HSRP. Each has a route to a multicast source via another interface. The DR is sending multicast onto the shared LAN, and these are reaching the non-DR on a non-RPF interface. The non-DR may not have created any state for the group (I guess since the DR is handling joins), and so the non-RPF packets are punted to the CPU for processing. The increased CPU causes HSRP state changes on the non designated router. The suggested solution is to use an ACL on the standby router to prevent these multicasts being received via the multicast DR.

Paul.
