Router, and a Designated Router. The range of Router Priority is from 0 to 255, where 255 is the

highest. The highest router ID is the highest router IP Address. Class C addresses are the highest.

The router with the highest priority is elected the Designated Router (DR). The router with the

second highest priority will be elected Backup Designated Router (BDR).

packet over this interface. Link-state advertisements contained in the Link State Update packet
