This is generally used for passing master control back to a preferred switch once the preferred switch has been returned to service after a failure. When this command is executed, the current master gives up control and initiates a new election by temporarily advertising its own priority level as 0 (lowest). After the new election, the virtual router forced into backup mode by this command will resume master control in the following cases: • This switch owns the virtual router (the IP addresses of the virtual router and its IP interface are the same) • This switch's virtual router has a higher priority and preemption is enabled. • There are no other virtual routers available to take master control.
