Usage Guidelines
To configure the device in a VRRP group as the default gateway, run the vrrp vrid priority command to specify the highest priority for the device so that the device can become the master.
PrerequisitesThe vrrp vrid virtual-ip command has been executed to create a VRRP group.
PrecautionsPriority 0 is reserved in the system. Priority 255 is reserved for the IP address owner, and the priority of the IP address owner cannot be changed.
When devices in a VRRP group have the same priority, the device that first switches to master state becomes the master. If devices preempt to be the master simultaneously, the device on an interface with the largest IP address is the master.
