Configuring VRRP Priority

The valid priority range for a virtual router is from 1 to 254 (1 is the lowest priority and 254 is the
highest). The default priority value for backups is 100. For switches whose interface IP address is the
same as the primary virtual IP address (the master), the default value is 255.

Configuring VRRP
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Enters interface configuration mode.
Configures the interface as a Layer 3
routed interface.
Creates a virtual router group. The range
is from 1 to 255.
Configures the virtual IPv4 address for
the specified VRRP group. This address
should be in the same subnet as the IPv4
address of the interface.
Use the secondary option only if
applications require that VRRP routers
accept the packets sent to the virtual
router's IP address and deliver to
applications.
Enables the VRRP group. Disabled by
default.
(Optional) Displays VRRP information.
(Optional) Saves this configuration
change.
