In VRRP, two or more physical routers can be associated with a virtual router, thus achieving the extreme reliability inherent in the SAFER architecture.
In a VRRP environment, host stations interact with the virtual router. They are not aware that this router is a virtual router, and they are not affected when a new router takes over the role of master router. This makes VRRP fully interoperable with every host station.
VRRP can be activated on an interface using a single command while allowing for the necessary
