Command History
Usage Guidelines
HSRP compares the priorities of all virtual routers in the HSRP group and selects the router with the
numerically highest priority. If two virtual routers have equal priority, HSRP selects the router with the
highest IP address.
This command requires the LAN Base Services license.
Examples
This example shows how to configure a virtual router with a priority of 254:
switch#
configure terminal
switch(
config)# interface ethernet 0/1
switch(config-if)# no switchport
switch(
config-if)# ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0
switch(
config-if)# hsrp 3
switch(config-if-hsrp)# priority 254
switch(config-if-hsrp)#
level
Interface priority for a virtual router. The range of values is from 0 to 255.
If this router is the owner of the IP addresses, then the value is automatically
set to 255. The default is 100.
forwarding-threshold
(Optional) Sets the threshold for the virtual router.
lower
lower-value
(Optional) Sets the low threshold value. The range is from 0 to 255. The
default is 1.
upper
upper-value
(Optional) Sets the upper threshold value. The range is from 0 to 255. The
default is 255.
