    HSRP Vs VRRP Vs GLBP

    Uploaded by

    Christinah Kenosi
    This document compares three router high availability protocols: HSRP, VRRP, and GLBP. HSRP uses one active router and one standby, while VRRP uses one master router and one or more backups. GLBP uses one Active Virtual Gateway and up to four Active Virtual Forwarders to pass traffic. All three protocols use a virtual IP address. HSRP and VRRP elect the router with the highest priority as the active/master, while GLBP uses a weighted load balancing algorithm.
