What is Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP)?

Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) is a Cisco proprietary protocol that provides first-hop redundancy for IP hosts. It allows multiple routers to share a virtual IP address and MAC address, acting as a single gateway for clients. If the active router fails, a standby router seamlessly takes over, minimizing disruption to network connectivity.
