Hi Group,
I encountered the following HSRP and "ip helper-address" configs:
R3:
!
interface FastEthernet0/0
ip address 139.1.0.3 255.255.255.0
ip helper-address 139.1.13.1 redundancy HSRP
standby 1 ip 139.1.0.1
standby 1 preempt
standby 1 name HSRP
!
R6:
!
interface FastEthernet0/1
ip address 139.1.0.6 255.255.255.0
ip helper-address 139.1.13.1 redundancy HSRP
standby 1 ip 139.1.0.1
standby 1 priority 110
standby 1 preempt
standby 1 name HSRP
!
The task are worded as follows:
- R1 should supply hosts in VLAN 367 (R3-R6 LAN segment) with IP addresses
in the range of ...
- The default gateway for these hosts should be R6.
- If R6 is down, R3 should be the default gateway.
What's the difference between having and without the "redundancy" option in
the "ip helper-address" command, in this case? Does the task call for it? I
usually do not include it. Will my solution be graded wrong?
Please advise.
Thank you.
BR,
Emil
