ip vrrp vrid priority priorityValue
no ip vrrp vrid priority
Command introduced before JunosE Release 7.1.0.
Configures the priority of VRRP routers. The no version restores the default value, 100.
NOTE: If you configure VRRP on a virtual router and associate the IP address
with the VRRP instance ID (VRID) so that the virtual address becomes the
interface address of the router, the priority of the router automatically changes
to 255 making it the master router. This change of priority occurs in JunosE
Software Releases 11.0.0 and higher-numbered releases and later to enable
full compliance with RFC-Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) (April
2004).
Also, you cannot configure the priority of the VRRP router as 255 by using the
ip vrrp priority command, unless you configured the router to automatically
learn associated addresses by using the auto keyword with the ip vrrp
virtual-address command. In addition, if you change the virtual address of
the VRRP router, which is operating as the IP address owner, to an IP address
that is no longer the IP address owner, the priority changes automatically to
the default value of 100.
vrid—VRID identifier; a number in the range 1–255
priorityValue—Priority value of the VRRP router; a number in the range 1–255; default
value is 100
