Release Information

Statement introduced before JUNOS Release 7.4.

Support for the realm statement introduced in JUNOS Release 9.2.

Description

Specify the router’s priority for becoming the designated router. The router that has the highest priority value on the logical IP network or subnet becomes the network’s designated router. You must configure at least one router on each logical IP network or subnet to be the designated router. You also should specify a router’s priority for becoming the designated router on point-to-point interfaces.

Options

number—Router’s priority for becoming the designed router. A priority value of 0 means that the router never becomes the designated router. A value of 1 means that the router has the least chance of becoming a designated router.

Range: 0 through 255
Default: 128
