VRRP basic configuration example

Backup—Routers that belong to a virtual router but are not the master. Then, if the master
becomes unavailable, the backup router with the highest priority (a configurable value)
becomes the new master. By default, backup routers are given a priority of 100. You can assign
a backup a priority value of 3 through 254.
