Hi robfantini
Welcome to the community!1. I didn't suggest using dynamic route protocol(RIP/OSPF) in your network, as on the core switch(gsm7352), there is only one default static route, no setting many static routes. Althouth there are many L3 routing VLAN, but they are all using for local VLANs.
2. For VRRP protocol, it's used for Router Redundancy, and it apply in one specific network topology. For detailed info, please refer to link (page280, VRRP).
3. For L2&L3 Multicast, like IGMP Snooping and IGMP/DVMRP/PIM...., these function used in the scenario with multicast stream(such as: VoD service)
Hope it helps!
