Associating the Track module with a detection
module

Associating Track with NQA

NQA supports multiple test types to analyze network performance, services, service quality. For
example, an NQA test group can periodically detect whether a destination is reachable, or whether
the TCP connection to a TCP server can be set up.
An NQA test group functions as follows when it is associated with a track entry:
•
If the consecutive failures reach the specified threshold, the NQA module tells the Track module
that the tracked object malfunctions. Then the Track module sets the track entry to the Negative
state.
•
If the specified threshold is not reached, the NQA module tells the Track module that the
tracked object functions correctly. The Track module then sets the track entry to the Positive
state.
For more information about NQA, see Network Management and Monitoring Configuration Guide.
To associate Track with NQA:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Create a track entry,
associate it with an NQA
reaction entry, and specify
the delay time for the Track
module to notify the
associated application
module when the track entry
status changes.
NOTE:
If the specified NQA test group or the reaction entry in the track entry does not exist, the status of the
track entry is Invalid.

Associating Track with BFD

BFD supports the control packet mode and echo packet mode. You can only associate a track entry
with the echo-mode BFD session to detect a directly connected link. Before that, you must configure
the source IP address of BFD echo packets.
The BFD functions as follows when it is associated with a track entry:
•
If the BFD detects that the link fails, it informs the track entry of the link failure. The Track
module then sets the track entry to Negative state.
•
If the BFD detects that the link is normal, the Track module sets the track entry to Positive state.
For more information about BFD, see "Configuring BFD."
