0000-5e00-01XX, where XX represents the VRID in hexadecimal.

Calculation:

VRID = 1 Hexadecimal = 01.

No, it’s definitely that one. VRID 1 gives that MAC address.

I thought VRRP used a different format for MAC addresses.

00-00-5E-00-01-01 is the virtual MAC, but I'm more interested in the virtual snacks they serve at the VRRP meetings.

00-00-5E-00-01-01 is the answer, but I still can't figure out why they call it "virtual" MAC. Sounds like a magic trick to me!

I feel like I should know this, but the details about how the MAC address is formed are a bit fuzzy for me right now.

This question seems similar to one we practiced where the VRID was different. I think it was 00:00:5E:00:01 for VRID 1, but I could be wrong.

I remember something about the virtual MAC starting with 00:00:5E, but I'm not sure how the rest is calculated.

I'm pretty confident I know how to solve this. The virtual MAC address is 00-00-5E-00-01-01, right? The VRID of 1 is the key piece of information.

Wait, what's VRID again? I'm drawing a blank on the specifics of how that factors into the virtual MAC address calculation.

Okay, I've got this. The virtual MAC address is derived from the VRID, right? So I just need to figure out the formula for that.
