The video demonstrates VRRP configuration on two routers providing an IP gateway. Failover behavior caused by interface object tracking is observed. We also review VRRP packet captured on Wireshark. VRRP serves the same purpose as HSRP with minor differences: one being a standard protocol, hence it would be a protocol of choice for inter-operability with other vendors.
