Correct answer: VRRP version 3.
Why this is the answer
VRRPv3 is the best choice because it supports both IPv4 and IPv6, which is a key requirement. It also works across multivendor routers, fulfilling another critical need for interoperability. VRRPv2 only supports IPv4, making it unsuitable for IPv6 hosts. GLBP, while offering load balancing, is a Cisco proprietary protocol, violating the multivendor requirement. HSRPv2 is also Cisco proprietary and, like VRRPv2, only supports IPv4, failing on both multivendor and IPv6 requirements.
