I have a MPLS TE tunnel from 1 to xrv.The primary LSP is 1-2-4-10-xr5.(1-head , XRv-tail)
I protected the link between 2 and 4(MPLS TE FRR) and there are 2 backup tunnels those are tunnel 0 and tunnel 1 with default configuration.
Tunnel 0 LSP ->2-3-4 (2 head end and 4 tail)
Tunnel 1 LSP ->2-12-4 (2 head end and 4 tail)
Whenever protected path goes down, Tunnel 0 is being always preffered over Tunnel 1 . Tunnel-1 is preffered only if tunnel 0 is down.
can anyone help me to understand the predefined rule to prefer the backup tunnel while having multiple backup tunnel?(Both tunnels are NHOP)

Hi @Ratheesh mv
The tunnel with the lowest numerical value always wins as long as it is up.

Hi @MHM Cisco World ,
The setup and hold priority are used between tunnels competing for bandwidth resources. In the case of the original poster, the two tunnels are not competing for resources and are both up.
