FTOS Configuration Guide for the C-Series - Force10 Networks

Figure 312 shows the same VRRP group configured on multiple interfaces on different subnets. Note that
the virtual addresses are different.

When the VRRP process completes its initialization, the State field contains either Master or Backup.
Set priority for the vrrp group
When you set the priority of a virtual router to 255 (see Assign virtual IP addresses on page 433), that
virtual router becomes the OWNER virtual router for the VRRP group. VRRP elects the MASTER router
by choosing the router with the highest priority. You configure the priority of the virtual router or you can
leave it at the default value of 100.
