Re: HSRP availability in datacenters?

On routers, you have your choice as of 12.2 (I believe). On the small 3550/3560 type MLS products only HSRP is offered. The 4948, being a cat4500 with a modern sup, offers both.

Of course the "new" animal in town is GLBP which offers load sharing.

No, in fact those are very interesting as they're a stop-gap between 3750s
and 4500s at a good price per port. Are there any HSRP limitations on them?
Guess I need to do some more research, as those are pretty hot.
Hasn't Cisco said for years that HSRP should not be used in new deployments and that VRRP should be used instead? Just curious.
