Ip Irdp Preference - Allied Telesis SwitchBlade x908 Series Software Reference Manual

ip irdp preference

When multiple routers connected to a LAN are all sending Router Discovery advertisements,
hosts need to be able to choose the best router to use. Therefore the IRDP defines a
preference value to place in the Router Discovery advertisements. Hosts choose the router
with the highest preference value.
This command sets the preference value to include in Router Discovery advertisements sent
for the specified interface.
When this command is used, all IP addresses on the interface are assigned the same preference
value, except the addresses that have specific preference value assignment using the command
ip irdp address
The no form sets the preference value to the default of 0.
