vrrp icmp redirect

[jabouaf]

Hello,

I would like to check the a VRRP router should send an icm redirect message for each packet that should be routed by a better router on the commun LAN (of those 2 routers and the source station).

and does anyone know if there is any timer for sending icmp redirect ?

I think not, but I would like to doublecheck this.

router B router A (VRRP master)

The virtual router master sends VRRP advertisements to other VRRP routers in the same group. The advertisements communicate the priority and state of the virtual router master. The VRRP advertisements are encapsulated in IP packets and sent to the IP Version 4 multicast address assigned to the VRRP group. The advertisements are sent every second by default; the interval is configurable.
