Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) prevents loss of network connectivity to
end hosts if the static default IP gateway fails. By implementing VRRP, you can designate
a number of routers as backup routers in the event that the default master router fails.
VRRP fully supports Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) and stacked VLANs (S-VLANs).
In case of a failure, VRRP dynamically shifts the packet-forwarding responsibility to a
backup router. VRRP creates a redundancy scheme which enables hosts to keep a single
IP address for the default gateway but maps the IP address to a well-known virtual MAC
address. VRRP provides this redundancy without user intervention or additional
configuration at the end hosts.
