vrrp6 vrid priority

Function

The vrrp6 vrid priority command sets a priority for a router in a Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol for IPv6 (VRRP6) backup group.

The undo vrrp6 vrid priority command restores the default priority.

The default priority is 100 for a router in a VRRP6 backup group.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

The priority of a router determines its position in a VRRP6 backup group. After you run the vrrp6 vrid priority command to set priorities for the routers in a VRRP6 backup group, the router with the highest priority becomes the master router.

Prerequisites

A VRRP6 backup group has been created using the vrrp6 vrid virtual-ip command.

Precautions

If the routers in a VRRP6 backup group have the same priority, the router that first switches to the Master state becomes the master router. Other backup routers no longer preempt the Master state.

Example

# Set the priority to 150 for a router in VRRP6 backup group 1.
