Typical Object Tracking Applications - Avaya G250 Administration

Configuring WAN interfaces
2. The second step is to configure several object trackers. In this case, object tracker 1 tracks
the state of RTR 5, and object tracker 2 tracks the state of RTR 6:
G250-001(config)# track 1 rtr 5
G250-001(config-track rtr 1)# description "track rtr-5"
Done!
G250-001(config-track rtr 1)# exit
G250-001(config)# track 2 rtr 6
G250-001(config-track rtr 2)# description "track rtr-6"
Done!
G250-001(config-track rtr 2)# exit
3. The third step is to configure a track list object tracker which tracks the states of object
trackers 1 and 2, and calculates its own state using a boolean or threshold calculation.
In this case, a boolean OR argument is used. This means that the track list is up if either
object tracker 1 or object tracker 2 is up.
G350-001(config)# track 10 list boolean or
G350-001(config-track list 10)# description "track list rtr-5 and rtr-6"
Done!
G350-001(config-track list 10)# object 1
Done!
G350-001(config-track list 10)# object 2
Done!
G350-001(config-track list 10)# exit

Typical object tracking applications
