ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide
1621
configure ospfv3 area priority
configure ospfv3 {domain <domainName>} area <area-identifier> priority
<priority>
Description
Configures the priority used in the designated router and backup designated router election algorithm
for all the interfaces within the area.
Syntax Description
Default
The default setting is 1.
Usage Guidelines
When two routers are attached to a network, both attempt to become the designated router. The one
with the higher priority takes precedence. If there is a tie, the router with the higher router ID takes
precedence. Setting the value to 0 ensures that the router is never selected as the designated router or
backup designated router.
Example
The following command sets all the interfaces in area 1.2.3.4 to not be selected as the designated router:
configure ospfv3 area 1.2.3.4 priority 0
