A. B. C. D.

A.

The Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) is used for providing redundancy and failover capabilities in IP networks. In VRRP, a group of routers works together to present the appearance of a single virtual router to the hosts on a LAN.

The VRRP virtual address is the IP address that is associated with the virtual router. The MAC address associated with the virtual address is known as the virtual MAC address. The virtual MAC address is generated by taking the Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI) 0000.5E00.01 and concatenating it with the VRRP virtual router ID in the format of 00-00-5E-00-01-XX, where XX is the virtual router ID in hexadecimal format.

Therefore, the correct answer is A. 0000.5E00.010a. This is the MAC address that is recognized as a VRRP virtual address.
