Hi Jeongjun,

Thank you for your patch.

The code in hsr_proxy_announcement() is _only_ executed (the timer is
configured to trigger this function) when hsr->redbox is set, which
means that somebody has called earlier iproute2 command:

ip link add name hsr1 type hsr slave1 lan4 slave2 lan5 interlink lan3
supervision 45 version 1
