1.  Introduction

   This document introduces a YANG data model [RFC6020] [RFC7950] for
   the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) [RFC3768] [RFC5798].
   VRRP provides higher resiliency by specifying an election protocol
   that dynamically assigns responsibility for a virtual router to one
   of the VRRP routers on a LAN.

   The YANG module specified in this document supports both versions 2
   and 3 of VRRP.  VRRP version 2 (defined in [RFC3768]) supports IPv4.
   VRRP version 3 (defined in [RFC5798]) supports both IPv4 and IPv6.

1.1.  Terminology

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
   "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in
   BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
   capitals, as shown here.
