The Configuration Menu 43W7774, May 2007
prio <priority (1-254)>
Defines the election priority bias for this virtual router group. This 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 (addr) is the same as the one used by the IP interface, the priority for this vir-
tual router will automatically be set to 255 (highest).
When priority tracking is used (/cfg/l3/vrrp/track or /cfg/l3/vrrp/vr #/track),
this base priority value can be modified according to a number of performance and operational cri-
teria.
adver <seconds (1-255)>
Defines the time interval between VRRP master advertisements. This can be any integer between 1
and 255 seconds. The default is 1.
preem disable|enable
Enables or disables master preemption. When enabled, if the virtual router group 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 preem is disabled, this virtual router will
always preempt 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.
ena
Enables the virtual router group.
dis
Disables the virtual router group.
del
Deletes the virtual router group from the switch configuration.
cur
Displays the current configuration information for the virtual router group.
