This object specifies the priority to be used for the virtual router master election process. Higher values imply higher priority. A priority of '0', although not settable, is sent by the master router to indicate that this router has ceased to participate in VRRP and a backup virtual router should transition to become a new master. A priority of 255 is used for the router that owns the associated IP address(es). This object is deprecated in favor of the IP Version Independent object, vrrpOperationsPriority.
