Would you agree with this?

1) HSRP and DHCP - can be used to provide redundant default gateway for hosts.

2) VRRP and DHCP - can be used to provide redundant default gateway for hosts.

3) DHCP and IRDP - can be used to provide redundant default gateway for hosts.

4) DHCP - configured to send two default gateway IP addresses - can be used to provide redundant default gateway for hosts, with some restrictions: it is not guaranteed that the host DHCP client will process the information of two default gateways received from DHCP server.

DHCP and IRDP works with Win2K and NT 4.0 SP5. I do not know if Linux works.
