Enhanced designing of network using IPv6 protocol and enabling HSRP for redundancy

This project involves finding out a solution through implementation of HSRP (Hot Standby Routing Protocol) which gives robustness to the network and allows load sharing between links. HSRP is a routing protocol used to find out an alternate route to forward a packet to the destination network. Two routers connected to the same network are required to initiate HSRP. To enable HSRP, a dynamic routing protocol called OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) is used. OSPF is based on link state routing algorithm. OSPF selects the best routes by finding the lowest cost path to a destination. OSPF routes IP packets based solely on the destination IP address found in the IP packet header. Whenever OSPF needs to perform its functions, it should transmit certain packets. The main objective of this project is to deliver the packets between the nodes consistently in ipv6 network by using HSRP, to increase the network performance by enabling HSRP and to enhance the auto-redundancy, reliability, and efficiency.
