Describe the Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP).
What will be an ideal response?
If you want to prevent downtime due to a failure on your default gateway, you should consider buying Cisco routers with Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP). This Cisco-only feature enables you to configure two or more routers, one router acting as the primary router and one or more routers acting as backup routers. If the primary router fails, one of the backup routers automatically takes over. The power of HSRP is transparency and quick response. When your routers are properly configured, your users will never know if the primary router fails.
