If you have routers in different geographical locations (say in different datacenters), but you want to provide streatched subnets across multiple datacenters (for VM migration), you might want to provide capability for local routing off that subnet in case the data center's connection to the outside world is lost. If each datacenter has two routers, you might have 4 or more routers running VRRP for the same subnet. _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
