Why would VRRP be implemented when configuring a new subnet in a multivendor environment?

The correct answer is B. to enable normal operations to continue after a member failure without requiring a change In a. VRRP does not provide additonal security features for Cisco devices. When VRRP is implemented the virtual mac-addres of the VRRP group remains the same so the host does not need to make an arp request to learn another mac-address for the gateway.
