Solution:
There is no need in any changes in router R2, since subnet 10.0.1.0/24 is terminated on it and as soon as 
router R2 is vrrp master, packets will be transmitted to corresponding interface. As soon as R1 becomes vrrp 
master, route for packets must be created with destination IP address from network 10.0.1.0/24.
Create track-object with corresponding condition:
R1(config)# track 1
R1(config-track)# track vrrp id 10 state master
R1(config-track)# enable
R1(config-track)# exit
Create static route to subnet 10.0.1.0/24 through 192.168.1.2, which will work in case of satisfying of track 1 
condition:
R1(config)# ip route 10.0.1.0/24 192.168.1.2 track 1 
14.3  Firewall/NAT failover configuration
Firewall failover is required to reserve firewall sessions.
14.3.1  Configuration algorithm
Step Description Command Key
1 Select the routers communication 
mode.
ip firewall failover sync-type 
<MODE>
<MODE> – communication mode:
unicast – unicast mode;
multicast – multicast mode.
2 Select the IP address of the network 
interface from which messages will 
be sent when the Firewall is running 
in session reservation mode.
ip firewall failover source-
address <ADDR>
<ADDR> –IP address of the sender 
network interface, defined as 
AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD where each part 
takes values of [0..255].
3 Set neighbor's IP address when 
reserving Firewall sessions in unicast 
mode.
ip firewall failover destination-
address <ADDR>
<ADDR> – neighbor IP address, 
defined as AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD 
where each part takes values of 
[0..255].
Configuring multicast IP address that 
will be used to exchange information 
when the Firewall session backup is 
in multicast mode.
ip firewall failover multicast-
address <ADDR>
<ADDR> –multicast IP address, 
defined as AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD 
where each part takes values of 
[0..255].
4 If Firewall session reservation works 
in multicast mode, then it is 
necessary to configure the multicast 
group ID.
ip firewall failover multicast-
group <GROUP>
<GROUP> – multicast group, 
specified in range [1000..9999].
