CCNA: Cisco Certified Network Associate — Question 798

Why implement VRRP?

Answer options

• A. To hand over to end users the autodiscovery of virtual gateways
• B. To provide end users with a virtual gateway in a multivendor network
• C. To leverage a weighting scheme to provide uninterrupted service
• D. To detect link failures without the overhead of Bidirectional Forwarding Detection

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Option B is correct because VRRP is designed to create a virtual gateway that can be utilized across different vendor devices, ensuring compatibility and accessibility. The other options either misrepresent the primary function of VRRP or focus on aspects that are not its main purpose, such as autodiscovery or failure detection mechanisms.
