Priority
A number used for election of current gateway. A higher
number means a higher chance to become elected. If two
routers has the same priority in an election, the router with
the highest IP address will win. The value 255 should be
used if (and only if) the router is also the owner of the virtual
IP address. Allowed values: 1-255 seconds (default: 100)
Preemption
Enable/disable preemption and, if enabled, set a preemp-
tion delay. Preemption allows an elected router to remain
as master for a time period If the new router is the virtual
IP address owner (priority 255), it will always become the
master. Default: Disabled
Multicast

Let VRRP control multicast routing. If checked, multicast
routing will be disabled automatically for this instance when
entering BACKUP state. Only one VRRP instance per in-
terface may be configured for controlling multicast routing.
The checkbox is disabled if another instance is in control.
