How is "pri" calculated automatically by GLBP ?
Posted by worldwidestar@sina.com.cn on July 1st, 2008


Hello.

By using "debug glbp events" can see something like the following
output.

===============================================
GLBP: Fa0/0 123.1 Listen: k/Hello rcvd from lower pri Acti
ve router (135/211.102.108.161)
===============================================
or
===============================================
GLBP: Fa0/0 123.1 Active: i/Hello rcvd from higher pri Act
ive router (167/211.102.108.152)
===============================================

Note the (xyz / ip_addr)
Is the "xyz" prior to "ip_addr" the priority of the virtual forwarder?

I wonder how this number "xyz" be calculated by router.
Who knows, please?

Thank you.
