Hi, Currently we use redundant virtual router enabled networks to prevent network outage even if one of the virtual router fails. This is achieved by using redundant virtual routers along with VRRP protocol. This has increased the network robustness. However updating a network with new network offering involves some downtime due to Vr restarts. In case of redundant VR based networks we can sequence the network update operations to update the backup first and then update the master while master's operations are being handled by backup, this way i think we can minimise the downtime.
