Prevent the BACKUP router with the higher priority from becoming the MASTER router by disabling preempt. Note: All virtual routers in the VRRP group must be configured the same: all configured with preempt enabled or configured with preempt disabled. Since preempt is enabled by default, disable the preempt function with the following command in the VRRP mode. Re-enable preempt by entering the preempt command. When preempt is enabled, it does not display in the show commands, because it is a default setting., Task Prevent any BACKUP router with a higher priority from becoming the MASTER router.
