become the active master router again if the configured priorities have not been changed.

•If two or more routers are configured with the same HSRP priority, the router with the higher IP address is elected as the new master router if the current master fails.

•The priority setting takes precedence over authentication. In other words, if a router with a higher priority than any other router comes on line, but is not configured with the standby authentication command, or is configured with the wrong string, it will still take over as the active master.

•The HSRP priority can change dynamically if an interface is configured with the standby track command and another interface on the router fails or comes back on line.

Example

Console(config-if)#standby 1 priority 10

Console(config-if)#

Related Commands

standby authentication (3-230) standby track (3-232)

standby preempt

Use this command to configure the router to take over as the master virtual router for an HSRP group if it has higher priority than the current master virtual router. Use the no form to disable preemption.

Syntax

standby [group] preempt [delay seconds] no standby [group] preempt [delay]

•group - Identifies the HSRP group. (Range: 0-255)

•seconds - The time to wait before issuing a claim to become the master. (Range: 0-3600 seconds)
