Command Usage
• If preempt is enabled, and this backup router has a priority higher than
the current acting master, it will take over as the new master. However,
note that if the original master (that is, the owner of the VRRP IP
address) comes back on line, it will always resume control as the
master.
• The delay can give additional time to receive an advertisement
message from the current master before taking control. If the router
attempting to become the master has just come on line, this delay also
gives it time to gather information for its routing table before actually
preempting the currently active router.
