vrrp6 vrid priority

Function

The vrrp6 vrid priority command sets the priority of the device in a VRRP6 group.

The undo vrrp6 vrid priority command restores the default priority of the device in a VRRP6 group.

By default, the priority of the device in a VRRP6 group is 100.

Format

vrrp6 vrid virtual-router-id priority priority-value

undo vrrp6 vrid virtual-router-id priority

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Value
vrid virtual-router-id	Specifies the VRID of a VRRP6 group.	The value is an integer that ranges from 1 to 255.
priority priority-value	Specifies the priority of the device in a VRRP6 group.	The value is an integer that ranges from 1 to 254. A larger value indicates a higher priority.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

To configure the device in a VRRP6 group as the default gateway, run the vrrp6 vrid priority command to specify the highest priority for the device so that the device can become the master.

Prerequisites

The vrrp6 vrid virtual-ip command has been executed to create a VRRP6 group.

Precautions

Priority 0 is reserved in the system. Priority 255 is reserved for the IP address owner.
When devices in a VRRP6 group have the same priority, the device that first changes to master state becomes the master. If devices attempt to be the master simultaneously, the device where the interface with the largest IP address is located becomes the master.

Example

# Set the priority of the switch in VRRP6 group 2 to 120 on the VLANIF interface.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] interface vlanif 100
[HUAWEI-Vlanif100] vrrp6 vrid 2 virtual-ip FE80::7 link-local
[HUAWEI-Vlanif100] vrrp6 vrid 2 priority 120

# Set the priority of the switch in VRRP6 group 2 to 120 on the Ethernet interface.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] interface gigabitethernet 0/0/1
[HUAWEI-GigabitEthernet0/0/1] undo portswitch
[HUAWEI-GigabitEthernet0/0/1] vrrp6 vrid 2 virtual-ip FE80::7 link-local
[HUAWEI-GigabitEthernet0/0/1] vrrp6 vrid 2 priority 120
