This object specifies the priority for the virtual router (e.g., master election) with respect to other virtual routers that are backing up a one or more associated IP addresses. Higher values imply higher priority. A priority of '0', although not settable, is used to indicate that this router has ceased to particpate 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).
