Network Monitor Service

Understanding
Network monitor service allows the user to configure network monitor operations like interface-monitor
or icmp-echo-monitor. These operations signal whether the operation state is up or down based on the
state of the interface or periodic pinging of a remote host respectively. This signal can then be used by
other applications to do interesting things. For example, routing uses the signal from interface-monitor or
icmp-echo-monitor to add/remove routes that have been configured with verify-reachability check using
that operation. This enables route failover/failback based on the state of the operation. Also, icmp-
monitor-operation can also just be used to generate some periodic traffic towards a specific host.
Configuration
Using the WebUI
Following example shows how to configure icmp-echo-monitor operation for verifying that the link over
NX is working.
