What happens to a VRRP router's priority when a tracked interface goes down?

The router immediately becomes backup

The priority is increased to keep it as master

The priority is reset to the default value

The priority is decreased by a configured amount

What is the primary purpose of VRRP in a network?

To provide security by encrypting all traffic between routers

To load-balance traffic across multiple routers simultaneously

To provide redundancy for the default gateway by allowing multiple routers to share a virtual IP address

To replace the need for a routing protocol like OSPF or BGP

A VRRP group is configured with virtual IP 10.1.1.1. The master router sends an ARP reply for this virtual IP. What MAC address will be advertised in the ARP reply?

The physical MAC address of the master's interface.

The virtual MAC address 00:00:5E:00:01:01.

The multicast MAC address 01:00:5E:00:00:12.

The broadcast MAC address FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF.

A VRRP master router has a tracked interface that goes down. The priority is reduced from 120 to 90. What will happen?

The master will continue as master because its priority is still above 100.

The backup router will become master if it has a priority higher than 90.

The virtual IP address will change to the backup's IP address.

The master will send a shutdown advertisement and immediately stop forwarding.
