CCIE Routing and Switching (legacy) — Question 12

Which statement about VRRP is true?

Answer options

• A. It supports load balancing.
• B. It can be configured with HSRP on a switch or switch stack.
• C. It supports IPv4 and IPv6.
• D. It supports encrypted authentication.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because VRRP can indeed be configured to work in conjunction with HSRP on switches or switch stacks. Options A, C, and D are incorrect as VRRP primarily focuses on redundancy rather than load balancing, and while it does support IPv4, it does not support IPv6, nor does it provide encrypted authentication.
