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) for VRRP over IPv4 and hence not settable. A 'badValue(3)' should be returned when a user tries to set 0 or 255 for this object.
