Which statement is correct about GLBP?
Answer Options
The active router is responsible for responding to clients with the virtual router's MAC address.
The active virtual gateway will respond with a MAC address of the active router.
The active virtual gateway will respond with a MAC address of an active virtual forwarder.
The virtual router is responsible for responding to tracking requests.
Correct Answer: C
Explanation
The active virtual gateway (AVG) is responsible for responding to ARP requests from hosts. The AVG will reply with the MAC address of any one of the active virtual forwarders (AVFs). The active router is a concept used with Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) or Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP), and it does not apply to Gateway Load Balancing Protocol (GLBP). The active virtual gateway will respond with the MAC address of the next active virtual forwarder or router that is available. The virtual router is not responsible for tracking requests; the AVG is responsible.
