This is the default setup priority, 0 highest to 7 lowest, applied to any LSP that doesn't explicitly signal its own setup priority, used by RSVP-TE to decide which lower-priority existing LSPs can be preempted to make room for a new one being set up. Because the object's own description requires this value be numerically greater than or equal to the holding priority, a device where setup priority is accidentally configured higher-priority than holding priority would violate the standard TE preemption model, where an LSP should never be easier to preempt while being set up than once established. For example, a setup priority of 4 paired with a holding priority of 2 means a new LSP competes less aggressively for bandwidth during setup than it defends its bandwidth once established, the intended relationship.
