What would be a use case for the HSRP configuration below?
- used to switch the active role to the other router in the HSRP group during a maintenance window
- used to prevent this router from ever relinquishing the active role
- used to prevent this router from ever performing the active role
- used to allow preemption over multiple peers
Explanation:
By tracking the loopback interface and decrementing the priority if it goes down, technicians would have a method of moving the active role to the other router by disabling the loopback interface. This method is less disruptive than disabling any of the physical interfaces. Although no decrement value has been specified, a default decrement of 10 will occur.
This configuration would not be used to prevent this router from ever relinquishing the active role. That would defeat the purpose of Hot Standby Routing Protocol (HSRP), which is to provide failover by relinquishing the active role to the other router.
This configuration would not be used to prevent this router from ever performing the active role. That would defeat the purpose of HSRP which is to provide failover by this router taking the active role when there is an issue with the other router.
This configuration would not be used to allow preemption over multiple peers. When more than two routers are in an HSRP group, the active router is allowed preemption over multiple peers by default.
