Usage Guidelines
The preempt mode controls whether a higher priority backup router preempts a lower priority master. dont-preempt prohibits preemption. The router that owns the virtual IP address always preempts, independent of the setting of this parameter.

configure vrrp vlan vlan-1 vrid 1 dont-preempt
