Referring to the diagram shown in the exhibit, you deployed VRRP load balancing using two FortiGate units and two VRRP groups with a VRRP virtual MAC address enabled on both FortiGate's port2 interface. During normal operation, both FortiGate units are processing traffic and the VRRP groups are used to load balance the traffic between the two FortiGate units.

If FortiGate unit A fails, what would happen?

AThe FortiGate Unit B port2 interface sends gratuitous ARPs to associate the VRRP virtual router IP address with its own MAC address, and all traffic fails over to it.
