3. Set the renter priority for each virtual router.
Since you want Switch 1 to be the master router, you need to bump the default virtual router
priorities (which are 100 to 101 on virtual routers 1-4) to force switch 1 to be the master for
these virtual routers.
Use the following sequence of commands:
Apply this sequence of commands to the following virtual routers, assigning each a priority of
101:
n
VR 2 - Priority 101
n
VR 3 - Priority 101
n
VR 4 - Priority 101
4. Configure priority tracking parameters for each virtual router.
For this example, the best parameter(s) on which to track is Layer 4 ports (l4pts).
Use the following command:
This command sets the priority tracking parameter for virtual router 1, electing the virtual
router with the most available ports as the master router. Repeat this command for the follow-
ing virtual routers:
n
VR 2 - Track l4pts VR 6 - Track l4pts
n
VR 3 - Track l4pts VR 7 - Track l4pts
n
VR 4 - Track l4pts VR 8 - Track l4pts
