Citation Necessary?

Can someone provide a citation to support this sentence?:

 Because VRRP fixed problems with the HSRP protocol, Cisco began using VRRP instead, while still claiming it as its own.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 164.67.97.133 (talk) 02:44, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply] 

Strong bias in history section

This section is poorly worded, lopsided and contains several statements of either a speculative nature, or else which need to be backed up by appropriate citations.

  • Because VRRP fixed problems with the HSRP protocol[citation needed]
  • Cisco informed the OpenBSD developers they would enforce their patent of HSRP[citation needed]
  • This may have been related to their lawsuit with Alcatel[speculation?]
  • as the "reasonable and non-discriminatory" licensing terms necessarily excluded open-source implementations[citation needed]
  • To avoid infringing the HSRP patent, they ensured their idea for CARP was fundamentally different[citation needed]
  • and is designed to use cryptography[citation needed]

This might help in the section above (Strong bias in history section). It is related to Cisco's patent claims on HSRP / VRRP.
