VRRP advertisements are sent by the current master router and include priority information used by the backup routers to evaluate mastership. In VRRP, the master is the router actively forwarding for the virtual IP address. Backups listen for advertisements; if advertisements stop, the backup with the highest effective priority can become master. This is why the statement that advertisements are sent only from the master router is correct. The advertisement also carries priority information, which is used in election behavior and failover decisions. Standby or backup routers do not normally send VRRP advertisements while a master is active, so option A is incorrect. The default advertisement interval is not three seconds in standard VRRP behavior; three seconds is commonly associated with other first-hop redundancy defaults such as HSRP hellos. Although timer fields exist in protocol operation, the exam focus here is the master-only advertisement behavior and the priority carried in those advertisements. In campus gateway redundancy design, VRRP advertisements must be protected from loss or filtering because missed advertisements can cause unnecessary master transitions.
