Q

What is unique about HSRP group numbers?

Q

How does HSRP election work?

Q

How does HSRP do MD5 authentication?

A

by using a hash of a key string

18
Q

What are the steps to configuring HSRP MD5 authentication?

A

1-name the chain, 2-establish a key number, 3-create the key string, 4-apply the chain to the string

19
Q

How does HSRP port tracking work?

A

When a specific interface is tracked, HSRP reduces it’s priority after a specified interval.

20
Q

What are the caveats for HSRP port tracking?

A

Another router must have a higher HSRP priority and have preemt set up

21
Q

How does HSRP gateway addressing work

A

Each physical interface has a different IP address. All physical interfaces point to a virtual interface called the standby address or VIP

22
Q

How is the HSRP MAC address configured?

A

0000.0c07.acxx where xx is the group number as a 2-digit hex value

23
Q

How can you load-balance with HSRP?

A

create 2 hsrp groups, each with the active router being different switches, then have clients point to each

24
Q

How do you show HSRP status

A

show standby

25
Q

How does every HSRP config command begin?

A

switch(config-if)# standby xx where x= group number

26
Q

How does the standby handle ARP issues after it becomes active?

A

by sending a gratuitous ARP

27
Q

Define VRRP

A

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol, pretty much the same as HSRP

28
Q

What is a VRRP group?

A

the same as a standby group in HSRP

29
Q

How does every VRRP command begin?

A

switch(config-if)# vrrp xx where xx= group number

30
Q

What is the VRRP master router?

A

the active router. All other routers are in backup state

31
Q

What are the VRRP group and priority numbers?

A

group (0-255), priority (1-254 254 is highest, 100 default)

32
Q

What is the format of the VRRP virtual MAC?

A

0000.5e00.01xx

33
Q

How often are VRRP advertisements sent?

A

1 second. Backup routers can learn the interval from the master

34
Q

How do VRRP routers handle preemption?

A

on by default

35
Q

How does VRRP do tracking?

A

it can’t

36
Q

Where does VRRP send advertisements?

A

multicasts to 224.0.0.18 (VRRP)

37
Q

How does the VRRP master router handle the VIP?

A

the master router can share the VIP

38
Q

What is the VRRP skew time?

A

Hold time is 3xhello. A skew time of 256ms-routerpriority)/256ms is added

39
Q

Define GLBP

A

Gateway load balancing protocol, cisco proprietary

40
Q

How does every GLBP command begin

A

switch(config-if)# glbp xx where xx = group number

41
Q

How does GLBP work?

A

Routers are assigned to common GLBP group. All routers can be active and can load balance
