Configures the priority used in the designated router and backup designated router election algorithm for one or all OSPFv3 interface(s).
| vlan_name | Specifies an IPv6 configured VLAN. |
| tunnel_name | Specifies an IPv6 tunnel. |
| all | Specifies all IPv6 configured VLANs or all IPv6 tunnels. |
| priority | Specifies a priority range. The range is 0 through 255. |
The default setting is 1.
When two routers are attached to a network, both attempt to become the designated router. The one with the higher priority takes precedence. If there is a tie, the router with the higher router ID takes precedence. Setting the value to 0 ensures that the router is never selected as the designated router or backup designated router.
The following command sets the priority of the interface VLAN corporate to 10:
# configure ospfv3 vlan corporate priority 10
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 11.2.
This command is available on platforms with Base license, or higher, as described in the Switch Engine v33.1.1 Licensing Guide document.
On switches with a Core or Premier license, the non-zero interface priority takes effect; on switches with an Advanced Edge or Base license, the default interface priority is 0.
