Changing the backup priority

When you enter the backup command to configure the device as a VSRP backup for the VRID, you
also can change the backup priority and the track priority:

The backup priority is used for election of the master. The VSRP backup with the highest
priority value for the VRID is elected as the master for that VRID. The default priority is 100. If
two or more backups are tied with the highest priority, the backup with the highest IP address
becomes the master for the VRID.

The track priority is used with the track port feature. Refer to

“VSRP priority calculation”

on

page 301 and

“Changing the default track priority”

on page 316.

To change the backup priority, enter a command such as the following at the configuration level for
the VRID.

TurboIron(config-vlan-200-vrid-1)#backup priority 75

Syntax: [no] backup [priority ] [track-priority ]

The priority parameter specifies the VRRP priority for this interface and VRID. You can
specify a value from 3 – 254. The default is 100.

For a description of the track-priority parameter, refer to

“Changing the default track

priority”

on page 316.

Example

Following is an example to configure a simple VSRP interface.

Enter the following commands to add tagged ports to a VLAN.

TurboIron(config)#vlan 30

TurboIron(config-vlan-30)#tag ethernet 28

Enter the following command to added the IP address.

TurboIron(config-vlan-30)#router-int ve 30

TurboIron(config-vlan-30)#interface ve 30

TurboIron(config-vif-30)#ip address 10.0.0.2/24

Enter the following commands to change the VSRP interface state and initiate VRID state.

TurboIron(config-vif-30)#vlan 30

TurboIron(config-vlan-30)#vsrp vri 30

TurboIron(config-vlan-30-vrid-30)#backup

TurboIron(config-vlan-30-vrid-30)#ip-address 10.0.0.1

TurboIron(config-vlan-30-vrid-30)#enable

Saving the timer values received from the master

The hello messages sent by a VRID master contain the VRID values for the following VSRP timers:

Hello interval

Dead interval

Backup hello interval

Hold-down interval
