Another way out would be to track a down interface on R2 and then it would
decrement it's priority ;-)

Hi,

Glad it worked, so the task must have a wording like R1 should be the active
router and not what you mentioned that R1's priority should be higher
without using ..any commands on any routers.

Is it? Coz the HSRP election would be won by
1. Priority
2. IP address of the I/F.

So, if you want R1 to be Active for HSRP, either it should have higher
priority or higher IP address.

Do let me know if the Task clearly says to increase the priority without
using the preemt or priority commands ? or does it say only to ensure R1 is
the active router ?

Thanks

Shanky
