II. Configuring switch priority
You can configure the priority of a switch in a backup group. VRRP will determine the
status of each switch in a backup group according to the priority of the switch. The
master switch in a backup group is the one currently with the highest priority.
Switch priority ranges from 0 to 255 (a larger number indicates a higher switch priority)
and defaults to 100. Note that only 1 through 254 are available to users. Switch priority
of 255 is reserved for IP address owners.
 Note:
The priority of the IP address owner is fixed to 255.
