I have a question about HSRP.
Here's the scenario: We have a collapsed backbone structure, with Cat 6509
switches with Routing Modules as the Distribution\Core Switches. We want to
implement HSRP on the two 6509's. My question is, when activating the HSRP
group, does it create it's own virtual mac address? Also, why would you ever
want to use the burned in Address? All the Vlans use the same mac address
(which is the mac of the switching module). Do you have to clear the arp
cache on the servers to get the new mac of the new gateway? Are there any
other issues someone has encountered when trying to implement this? I don't
want anything unforseen to sneak up on me.
Thanks,
Bill Mckenzie
