A. B. C. D.D
Switches configured with VRRP share a virtual IP address, which is the address you configure as the default route on the hosts. At any time, one of the switches is the VRRP master, meaning that it owns the virtual IP address and is the active default gateway. The other devices are backups. The switches dynamically assign master and backup roles based on priorities that you configure (1 through 255). If the master fails, the backup switch with the highest priority becomes the master within a few seconds. This is done without any interaction with the hosts.
http://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos15.1/topics/concept/vrrp-qfx-series.htmlWhen using VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol), a virtual IP address (VIP) is configured to enable high availability and redundancy among multiple routers in the network. One router is elected as the master, and the others are designated as backups. The master router owns the VIP address and forwards traffic to the active gateway.
Regarding the VRRP priority, it is used to determine which router becomes the master if there are multiple routers available. The router with the highest priority will become the master.
To answer the question, when a VRRP master owns the VIP address, the VRRP priority will be set to 255. This is the maximum value for the priority and ensures that the current master retains its position. In contrast, the backup routers will have a lower priority value, such as 100, which can be configured manually.
In summary, the correct answer to the question is D. The VRRP priority will be set to 255 when the master owns the VIP address.
