numerically highest priority. If two virtual routers have equal priority, HSRP selects the router with the
highest IP address.
This command requires the LAN Base Services license.
Examples
This example shows how to configure a virtual router with a priority of 254:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 0/1
switch(config-if)# no switchport
switch(config-if)# ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0
switch(config-if)# hsrp 3
switch(config-if-hsrp)# priority 254
switch(config-if-hsrp)#
