VRRP
Increasing Reliability and Failover with the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol
Ayikudy Srikanth, Adnan Adam Onart
Résumé
By employing the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol
(VRRP), administrators can ensure that their networks
remain up and running, thereby eliminating expensive
downtime. Using VRRP to avoid network outages is essential
to building accessible, robust networks, and central to the
implementation of successful disaster recovery models.
Written by experts who contributed to the design of the
VRRP protocol and participated actively in its deployment,
VRRP: Increasing Reliability and Failover with the Virtual
Router Redundancy Protocol is your best introduction to
this powerful high-availability tool.
VRRP examines the general characteristics of the protocol
and its usage. The emphasis is on translating the protocol
specification into a tutorial form ideal for day-to-day
users of VRRP. In addition to introducing the technology,
this book provides an in-depth analysis, featuring
extensive material on configuring, managing, and
troubleshooting VRRP. Precursors to this protocol, such as
Cisco's HSRP and DEC's IPSTP, are also discussed. Various
vendor-specific extensions to VRRP—and their use in
solving specific high-availability problems not addressed
by VRRP—are also examined.
Network administrators and managers, protocol implementers,
practicing professionals, researchers, and students
exploring the area of high availability will gain a solid
understanding of the core concepts of reliability and
redundancy based on VRRP, as well as the particulars of the
VRRP protocol and how to implement it.
The appendixes provide the necessary background for
networking and TCP/IP, the full text of VRRP MIB, a study
of actualVRRP implementations and an analysis of
public-domain software available for VRRP over Linux, an
overview of the VRRP state machine using SDL flowcharts and
UML diagrams, and an analysis of the protocol through
formal logic.
