GLBP uses an active/active model, so traffic can be distributed between multiple routers even if the hosts are in the same subnets.
What function does the AVG perform?
In GLBP, the AVG replies to all ARP requests for the virtual IP address. It will LB the responses so that the hosts end up balanced between all the routers in the group.

Active Virtual Gateway
How does the AVG direct hosts to utilize different routers as their gateways?
By providing the MAC addresses of different routers in the LB group for the virtual IP address.
