> Hello all,

> I've read in the CCNP Switching Exam Cert. Guide that a 
> standby router that
> becomes active in an HSRP group, sends a gratuitous ARP to 
> update the ARP
> cache of the end stations with the new active MAC address...
> 
> This is strange, since the same virtual MAC address is used 
> by active and
> standby HSRP routers.
> 
> However, maybe Cisco's implementation has once been like 
> this, because I've
> seen instances in the field that ARP caches contained the 
> real MAC instead of
> the virtual MAC address when using HSRP.
> 
> Can someone give comments on this?
