VRRP is to HSRP what 802.1q is to ISL... I highly recommend using VRRP instead of HSRP because: 1. It is a more robust protocol 2. It is vendor agnostic 3. Being vendor agnostic it is more likely to have a continuing future. Does anyone still use ISL? Owen On Aug 20, 2012, at 13:10 , sthaug@nethelp.no wrote:
Yeah I see the disconnect. I'm assuming that what I see is what I get. Which means I'm going to stick with HSRP. If our AS team gives me any good feedback that I can share I will do so. Thanks Nick.
XE: v4: HSRPv1, HSRPv2, VRRP v6: HSRPv2
Not particularly relevant to the original question - however, I'd like to mention that we've been using IPv6 VRRP on our Juniper routers for well over a year. No particular problems so far.
