CCNA: Cisco Certified Network Associate — Question 257

What are two requirements for an HSRP group? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. exactly one active router
• B. one or more standby routers
• C. one or more backup virtual routers
• D. exactly one standby active router
• E. exactly one backup virtual router

Correct answer: A, B

Explanation

The correct answer is A and B because an HSRP group requires exactly one active router to handle traffic and one or more standby routers to take over if the active router fails. Options C, D, and E are incorrect because HSRP does not designate backup virtual routers in this context, and the terms 'standby active router' and 'backup virtual router' are not applicable as per HSRP's operational requirements.
