VRRP and DHCP server
If you want to operate a DHCP server on the devices of a VRRP group, the DHCP server must
be configured on the master router. Backup routers do not react to DHCP queries. Make sure
that the master router is statically configured and that after a failure, becomes the master of the
VRRP group again.
Procedure
