hi,
I have doubts in implementing the operational issue 8.2 in RFC 2338. If a VRRP router restarts or boots, it should not send any ARP messages with its physical MAC address for the IP address it owns, it should only send ARP messages that include Virtual MAC address.
In our case, VRRP can be enabled or disabled on the router.
suppose when VRRP router restarts, the backup router will be acting as Master. On what basis ARP should delay sending the response for the IP addresses that are taken care by Backup router. when an arp request comes only the backup router (acts as Master) should send the arp reply.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
