CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 571

A network administrator requires redundant routers on the network, but only one default gateway is configurable on a workstation. Which of the following will allow for redundant routers with a single IP address?

Answer options

• A. EIGRP
• B. VRRP
• C. MPLS
• D. STP

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol), which allows multiple routers to work together and present a single IP address as the default gateway. EIGRP, while a routing protocol, does not provide redundancy in the same way. MPLS is a protocol for efficient data forwarding and does not relate to gateway redundancy, and STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) is focused on preventing loops in the network rather than providing redundant gateways.
