Actually, I believe that everybody is right in this regard. There are two
different places that you can specify a priority.
In broadcast types networks, the default OSPF priority is 1, as some folks
have said. To change it, you type the interface command "ip ospf priority".
Router(config-router)#int e0/0
Router(config-if)#ip ospf pri
Router(config-if)#ip ospf priority ?
<0-255> Priority
However, for non-broadcast networks where you have to specify an OSPF
neighbor (as in the original example), it is different. There is a separate
priority statement for that under the neighbor command. Its default
priority is 0.
Router(config)#router ospf 1
Router(config-router)#neigh 1.1.1.1 ?
poll-interval OSPF dead-router polling interval
priority OSPF priority of non-broadcast neighbor
<cr>
Router(config-router)#neigh 1.1.1.1 priority ?
<0-255> Priority
Hope this helps,
Joe

that's mean if you didn't configure priority, cisco router will have
priority value is 1.
