Usage Information
Use this command to create an object that tracks the UP and/or DOWN threshold of an IPv6 route metric. In
order for a route's metric to be tracked, the route must appear as an entry in the routing table.
A tracked IPv6 route is considered to match an entry in the routing table only if the exact IPv6 address and prefix
length match a table entry. For example, when configured as a tracked route, 3333:100:200:300:400::/80 does not
match routing table entry 3333:100:200:300::/64. If no route-table entry has the exact IPv6 address and prefix
length, the status of the tracked route is considered to be DOWN.
When you configure the threshold of an IPv6 route metric as a tracked object, the UP/DOWN state of the tracked
route is also determined by the current metric for the route in the routing table.
To provide a common tracking interface for different clients, route metrics are scaled in the range 0 to 255, where
0 is connected and 255 is inaccessible. The scaled metric value communicated to a client always considers a lower
value to have priority over a higher value. The resulting scaled value is compared against the configured threshold
values to determine the state of a tracked route as follows:
•
•
1062 Object Tracking
Enter the ID number of the tracked object. The range is 1 to 500.
Enter an IPv6 address in X:X:X:X::X format. The valid IPv6 prefix lengths are from /0 to /
128.

If the scaled metric for a route entry is less than or equal to the UP threshold, the state of a route is UP.
If the scaled metric for a route is greater than or equal to the DOWN threshold or the route is not entered in
the routing table, the state of a route is DOWN.
