Lee,

The session will come up assuming that R1 initiates the session, in which case the router being the primary would reply with the VRRP virtual address rather than the physical address.

The TCP session would obviously need to be reestablished if a VRRP failover takes place.

Original Q: quest is that should R1 make peer with VRRP address or should R1 make peering with both R2 and R3 real addresses

Yes you need to peer with bothe the pysical active and physical standby in order for VRRP to function

Steven,

I don't see any advantage to use VRRP in this context. VRRP is something that would be used to provide redundancy on a user subnet. Why use VRRP if you have BGP sessions from R1 to both R2 and R3.

Regards,

I agree, however I was just answering the initial question as to VRRP peering with both routers

VRRP is running because their are some hosts sits on that network connected to switch where BGP is running.

SO what I get from the above thread is R1 must make peers with R2 and R3 Real address but not VRRP address ? right ????
