mr brad davis,

whilst i am not here to yell at you.

you have no idea what you are talking about.

i work for one of the largest stock exchanges in the world and we use 
vrrp on 73 servers to server apache


vrrp was invented by cisco and they use it on their load balancers but 
as somebody already said rtfm dude.
