Descriptions
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 virtual 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 criteria.
Defines the time interval between VRRP master advertisements. This can be any
integer between 1 and 255 seconds. The default is 1.
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.
When enabled, the priority for this virtual router will be increased for each other IP
interface active on this switch. An IP interface is considered active when there is at
least one active port on the same VLAN. This helps elect the virtual routers with the
most available routes as the master. This command is disabled by default.
When enabled, the priority for this virtual router will be increased for each active
port on the same VLAN. A port is considered "active" if it has a link and is
forwarding traffic. This helps elect the virtual routers with the most available ports
as the master. This command is disabled by default.
