I am wondering if you have tried this with GLBP? Without mocking it up in
the lab I would think that it might be another alternative that might also
work. My understanding is that all members in a GLBP group balance naturally
as oppossed to HSRP and having a single primary route or MHSRP groups having
multiple vips and what is in my opinion a somewhat cumbersome config. I
haven't done it but would think it would work as well and maybe be more
robust. Might be something to look into. BTW - I see the unicast flooding
issue a lot, despite best intentions.
