I agree but have a caution:

In the lab, unless told otherwise, don't make any assumptions about what
type of hosts are on the subnet. Whatever config you use should work
regardless of what type of hosts are or might be in the future on the
subnet.

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.
