Hi Oliver, >>Why are you asking?
It is related to issue when switch-1 is involved with layer 2 loop and send back the HSRP packets to 7609-2.

Why are you asking? If you are concerned about nodes connected to switch messing around with your HSRP, use authentication on your HSRP messages oli _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
