A.
IRF failover occurs in 3 to 4 seconds, whereas VRPF failover occurs in 10 or more seconds

B.
Unlike VRRP, which requires as least two addresses to be listed. Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) scopes list a single IP address for the default gateway

C.
The IRF virtual switch runs a separate routing in each member, which enhances the
redundancy and reliability of the overall solution

D.
Multiple IRF members can actively route traffic for the same subnet and use the same IP
address and routing control plane

    Answer: B

    From study guide:

    IRF allows every device in the group to use the same IP address at the same time that they share the routing responsibilities. This means that DHCP scopes list a single IP address for the default router.

    How many IP-addresses are used by IRF or VRRP members per subnet?
    IRF – one
    VRRP – one per VRRP member (+ one virtual)
