Re: DR Election! clarification

[Rikki Nguyen <[e-mail]>]

no change.

the router priority change will cause all routers to re-perform
the DR election.  but since there is exactly one DR and one BDR,
the same routers will be re-elected.  the router priority only
comes into play when multiple or no routers declare themsleves
DR/BDR.
