HSRP (Hot Standby Router Protocol) is a Cisco proprietary protocol that provides high network availability by allowing multiple routers to share a virtual IP address and MAC address. One router acts as the active router, forwarding traffic, while the others act as standby routers. If the active router fails, a standby router quickly takes over, minimizing downtime. It's commonly used in networks requiring redundancy to ensure continuous connectivity.
