configure ospfv3 interface priority
Description
Configures the priority used in the designated router and backup designated router election algorithm for one or all OSPFv3 interface(s).
Syntax Description
| 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. |
Default
The default setting is 1.
Usage Guidelines
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.
Example
The following command sets the priority of the interface VLAN corporate to 10:
# configure ospfv3 vlan corporate priority 10
