MODIFY GLOBAL VRRP GROUP PARAMETERS
It is recommended that the modifications to VRRP group global parameters are 
done before enabling the VRRP group on the interfaces. Otherwise, this router 
might become a master or a slave inadvertently before finishing the 
customization.
For VRRP to be enabled on an interface for a group, the following three conditions 
have to be met:
• The primary address of the interface must be configured.
• The operational state of the interface must be up.
• The primary address of the group must be configured.

O CONFIGURE VRRP ROUTER PRIORITY
Note: Priority cannot be changed for a VRRP group that is an IP address owner (i.e., VRRP 
group address same as the interface address). The default priority for this group is set 
to 255.

vrrp <1-8> priority <1-254> This command sets the priority for the 
router for a specific VRRP group.
no vrrp <1-8> priority The “no” command restores the default
