IPSO - analyzing the status of VRRP State

We are working on analyzing the status of the VRRP State on IPSO devices that are members of a Sync Only cluster.


To the best of my understanding, a device in normal operating conditions should have all of the VRRP interfaces in either Master or Backup state.


Would you consider the following as an indication of a VRRP fault?


VRRP State
VRRP Router State: Up
Flags: On,LocalReceive,MonitorFirewall
Interface enabled: 4
Virtual routers configured: 4
In Init state 0
In Backup state 3
In Master state 1






I found the following reference that confirms that all of the Master's should be on one device and all of the Backup's on the second device.
