In this configuration, R1's physical interface address (10.10.10.1) is different from the VRRP virtual IP address (10.100.100.1), meaning R1 is operating as a non-owner VRRP master - it did not originate the virtual address as one of its own real interface addresses. By default, Junos VRRP masters that do not own the virtual address will forward transit traffic destined through that address but will not process or respond to traffic addressed directly to the VIP itself, such as ICMP echo requests, Telnet, or SSH sessions aimed at
10.100.100.1. This is deliberate default behavior intended to prevent ambiguity about which physical device is answering on behalf of a shared virtual identity. To allow the master to accept and respond to packets whose destination is the virtual address itself, the accept-data statement must be explicitly configured under the vrrp- group hierarchy. Once enabled, the elected master will process locally destined traffic sent to the VIP, resolving exactly the symptom described. The track option is used for interface or route-based priority adjustment to influence mastership, advertise-interval tunes the frequency of VRRP hello advertisements, and no-preempt prevents a higher-priority router from reclaiming mastership once a lower-priority router has taken over - none of these affect whether the master processes traffic destined to the VIP.

In the output of show ospf database, Junos marks every self-originated link-state advertisement with an asterisk immediately preceding the LSA's link-state ID. A self-originated LSA is one that was created and flooded by the router on which the command is being executed, as opposed to an LSA that was received from and originated by a neighboring router elsewhere in the area. In this exhibit, the asterisked Router LSA has an ID of 10.101.100.0 and an Advertising Router value of the same 10.101.100.0, confirming that this particular Router LSA describes the local device's own links, area membership, and interface costs, and that the local router itself flooded this LSA into the area's link-state database. This distinction matters operationally because when troubleshooting OSPF topology or SPF calculation issues, engineers frequently need to isolate their own router's advertised state from the states advertised by every other router in the area; the asterisk provides an immediate, unambiguous visual cue for that separation without needing to cross-reference the router's own ID separately. It has no relationship to designated router or backup designated router status - DR/BDR roles are indicated elsewhere in interface-level output, not through the asterisk convention in the LSA database dump, and a router that is neither DR nor BDR still self-originates and flags its own Router LSA the same way.
