In a VRRP setup, what role does the virtual IP address play for end hosts?

It is a multicast address used for VRRP advertisements

It is the physical IP address of the master router

It is the IP address that hosts use as their default gateway

It is used only for management purposes and not for data forwarding

What is the virtual MAC address in VRRP used for?

To identify the VRRP group on the network

To allow hosts to send frames to the virtual router without needing to know the master's physical MAC

To uniquely identify each physical router in the VRRP group

To encrypt VRRP advertisements between routers

What is the purpose of VRRP advertisements?

To exchange routing information between routers

To synchronize the MAC address tables of switches

To announce the master's status and allow backups to detect a failure

To authenticate and encrypt data traffic between hosts

Two routers are configured in a VRRP group with the same priority (100). Router A has IP address 10.1.1.2, Router B has IP address 10.1.1.3. Which router becomes master?

The router that was configured first.

Router B, because it has the higher IP address.

The router with the lowest MAC address.

Router A, because it has the lower IP address.

What is the effect of enabling preemption in VRRP?

A backup with a higher priority can take over the master role from a lower-priority master

The master will send advertisements more frequently

The master will automatically increase its priority over time

Backup routers will never become master
