In Figure 5, three VRRP groups are present:
• VRRP group 1: Router A is the master; Router B and Router C are the backups.
• VRRP group 2: Router B is the master; Router A and Router C are the backups.
• VRRP group 3: Router C is the master; Router A and Router B are the backups.
To balance load among Router A, Router B, and Router C, configure hosts on the LAN to use VRRP group
1, 2, and 3 as the default gateways respectively. When configuring VRRP priorities, make sure that each
router holds such a priority in each VRRP group that it will take the expected role in the group.
