An Overview of Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol Techniques and Implementation for Enterprise Networks
P. Rajamohan · 2014
The needs of network in most of the enterprise companies/campus as increase day by day depends on the demands of resources sharing. In order to have smooth and suitable as well as good availability of networks resources 24/7. In VRRP there are a three advantages that are found, first is one is high availability, load balancing and business continuity. VRRP is a popular protocol for providing device redundancy, for connecting redundant WAN gateway routers or server access switches. It allows a backup router or switch to automatically take over if the primary (master) router or switch fails. This paper presents the VRRP techniques, performance, advantages and implementation approach by the way of how the VRRP uses dynamic failover to ensure the availability of an end node’s default router.
