Figure 77 OSPF Router Election Example
You can assign a priority to an interface which determines whether this router will be elected
to be a DR or BDR. The router with the highest priority becomes the DR, while a router with a
priority of 0 does not participate in router elections. In
priority of 0 to routers B and C, thereby ensuring they do not become DR or BDR and assign a
priority of 1 to router A to make sure that it does become the DR.
