This chapter describes how to configure the advanced function of the product.

This product supports function of VRRP, which can be used to provide reduncy. VRRP
actually "mirrors" one router's entire configuration to a second "standby router"; in the event
of a failure, everything(including routing table) is preserved as the standby router assumes
total responsibility.
[For example]
Set both routers into virtual IP Addresses, backup router will only become active if master
router link fails.
