Which type of protocol allows hosts to use a virtual IP address as their default gateway, ensuring network availability if one router fails?
Dynamic Routing Protocols
VLAN Trunking Protocols
First Hop Redundancy Protocols
Link Aggregation Protocols
First Hop Redundancy Protocols (FHRPs) allow multiple routers to present a single virtual IP address as the default gateway for hosts on a LAN. This ensures network availability by providing seamless failover if one router fails. Dynamic Routing Protocols exchange routing information between routers but do not provide a virtual default gateway for hosts. VLAN Trunking Protocols manage VLAN traffic across network links, and Link Aggregation Protocols combine multiple physical links into a single logical link to increase bandwidth.
