virtual-router <1-15> priority <1-254>
Defines the election priority bias for this virtual server. The priority value can be any integer
between 1 and 254. The default value is 100.
During the master router election process, the routing device with the highest virtual router
priority number wins. If there is a tie, the device with the highest IP interface address wins. If
this virtual router’s IP address is the same as the one used by the IP interface, the priority for
this virtual router will automatically be set to 255 (highest).
When priority tracking is used, this base priority value can be modified according to a number
of performance and operational criteria.
Command mode: Router VRRP
virtual-router <1-15> timers advertise <1-255>
Defines the time interval between VRRP master advertisements. This can be any integer
between 1 and 255 seconds. The default value is 1.
Command mode: Router VRRP
virtual-router <1-15> timers preempt-delay-time <0-255>
Configures the preempt delay interval. This timer is configured on the VRRP Owner and
prevents the switch from transitioning back to Master state until the preempt delay interval
has expired. Ensure that the interval is long enough for OSPF or other routing protocols to
converge.
Command mode: Router VRRP
[no] virtual-router <1-15> preemption
Enables or disables master preemption. When enabled, if this virtual router is in backup mode
but has a higher priority than the current master, this virtual router will preempt the lower
priority master and assume control. Note that even when preemption is disabled, this
virtual router will always pre-empt any other master if this switch is the owner (the IP
interface address and virtual router addr are the same). By default, this option is enabled.
