OcNOS-SP : Layer 3 Guide : Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol Command Reference : VRRP v6 Commands : priority
priority
Use this command to configure the VRRP router priority within the virtual router. Priority determines the role that each VRRP router plays and what happens if the master virtual router fails. If a VRRP router owns the IP address of the virtual router and the IP address of the physical interface, this router functions as the master virtual router.
Priority also determines whether a VRRP router functions as a backup virtual router and the order of ascendancy to becoming a master virtual router if the master virtual router fails.
Use the no parameter with this command to disable this feature.
