Explanation
Switches configured with VRRP share a virtual IP address, which is the address you configure as the default route on the hosts. At any time, one of the switches is the VRRP master, meaning that it owns the virtual IP address and is the active default gateway. The other devices are backups. The switches dynamically assign master and backup roles based on priorities that you configure (1 through 255). If the master fails, the backup switch with the highest priority becomes the master within a few seconds. This is done without any interaction with the hosts.
