Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP)

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) is a first hop redundancy protocol used to establish a fault tolerant default gateway. It is similar in operation to HSRP but unlike HSRP, it was developed as a vendor-neutral standard protocol defined in RFC 3768, and later updated in RFC 5798.
