DGS-6604 m vrrp preempt vrrp preempt To configure the router to take over as the master virtual router for a Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) group, if it has higher priority than the current master virtual router, use the vrrp preempt command. To disable this function, use the no form of this command. vrrp VRID preempt no vrrp VRID preempt Syntax Description VRID Specifies the virtual router identifier, which is the number identifying the virtual router that preemption is being configured for. The virtual router identifier is configured with the command "vrrp ip" on page 917. Range is from 1 to 255. Default Command Mode Usage Guideline Examples Enabled Interface configuration A backup router will not attempt to preempt the master unless it has higher priority. This command controls whether a higher priority backup router preempts a lower priority master. By default, the router preempt mode is enabled on the router when it takes over as master router for the virtual router if, it has a higher priority than the current master router. After using the no form of this command, the preempt mode changes to disabled, and the backup router will not attempt to preempt the master router even if it has a higher priority than the master router. One exception is that the router, that is the virtual IP address owner, always preempts, regardless of the setting of this command. The following example shows how to configure the router to preempt the current master router when its priority of 200 is higher than that of the current master router. Switch(config)#interface vlan1 Switch(config-if)#vrrp 7 preempt Switch(config-if)#vrrp 7 priority 200 CLI Reference Guide 918
