That is how it would work.  In the case that was described, though, a
switch failed in a cascaded series of switches, meaning that the Nokia
device saw its link still up, and therefore had no reason to drop
priority on its interfaces.

The secondary noticed the lack of advertisements from the primary, but
the primary did not relinquish its priority because it saw no problem.

VRRP does not solve every problem, is the lesson here.
