Layer 3 Routing Commands 1859
vrrp priority
Use the vrrp priority command in Interface Configuration mode to set the
priority value for the virtual router configured on a specified interface. Use
the no form of the command to return the priority to the default value.
Syntax
vrrp group priority level
no vrrp group priority level
• group — The virtual router identifier. (Range: 1-255)
• level — Priority value for the interface. (Range: 1-254)
Default Configuration
Priority has a default value of 100.
Command Mode
Interface Configuration (VLAN) mode.
User Guidelines
The VRRP router with the highest numerical value for priority will become
the VR master. When the VRRP priorities are equal, the router with the
numerically highest IP address will win the election and become master. If the
VRRP router is the owner of the VR IP address, its priority will be 255, and
this value cannot be changed.
Example
The following example sets the priority value for the virtual router 5 on VLAN
15.
console(config-if-vlan15)#vrrp 5 priority 20
vrrp timers advertise
Use the vrrp timers advertise command in Interface Configuration mode to
set the frequency, in seconds, that an interface on the specified virtual router
sends a virtual router advertisement. Use the no form of the command to
return the advertisement frequency to the default value.
