Richard,
Two separate tasks not correlating to each other. IRDP is used when you don't define a gateway on the host. So it wouldn't be for the DHCP clients.

From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Meraz, Richard Sent: Thursday, June 25, 2009 3:22 PM To: CCIE OSL Subject: [OSL | CCIE_RS] Vol 3 Labs 4 and 5 IP IRDP Had it not been for Vol. 3 Labs 4 and 5, I probably would never have ever cared . . . but . . . we are asked, in both labs to configure VRRP and a create DHCP pool with the VRRP address as the default gateway. The next task then asks to advertise that gateway using IRDP to advertise that same address. My question is why run both DHCP to advertise a gateway and IRDP? Are there certain hosts that can not receive an address via DHCP, but can via IRDP? Thanks for the clarification, Rich
