It depends on the situation, but having redirects enabled will cause the
recovery time during a failure to be the arp cache timeout of the workstation
and have nothing to do with the HSRP failover. Basically, a session that
wouldn't fail (in an outage) with HSRP and no redirects will fail when
redirects are enabled. BUT, all of this depends on the standby HSRP router
being a better path to the destination than the active router. Normally,
redirects have no effect nor benefit when turned on with HSRP. So why
configure something that has a possible bad effect or non at all?
