Step
3. Create a VRRP group and
configure its virtual IP
address.
4. Associate a track entry with
a VRRP group.
To associate Track with VRRP VF:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Create a VRRP group and
configure its virtual IP
address.
4. Associate Track with VRRP
VF.

Associating Track with static routing

A static route is a manually configured route. With a static route configured, packets to the specified
destination are forwarded through the path specified by the administrator.
The disadvantage of using static routes is that they cannot adapt to network topology changes.
Faults or topological changes in the network can make the routes unreachable, causing network
breaks.
To prevent this problem, configure another route to back up the static route. When the static route is
reachable, packets are forwarded through the static route. When the static route is unreachable,
packets are forwarded through the backup route, avoiding network breaks and enhancing network
reliability.
To check the accessibility of a static route in real time, establish association between the Track and
the static route.
If you specify the next hop but not the egress interface when configuring a static route, you can
establish collaborations among the static route, the Track module, and detection modules. This
enables you to check the accessibility of the static route by the status of the track entry.
•
The Positive state of the track entry shows that the next hop of the static route is reachable, and
that the configured static route is valid.

Remarks
No VRRP group is created by
default.
No track entry is specified for a
VRRP group by default.
This command is supported when
VRRP is operating in both
standard protocol mode and load
balancing mode.
Remarks
N/A
N/A
No VRRP group is created by
default.
Use at least one command.
By default, no track entry is
specified for a VF.
This command is configurable
when VRRP is operating in
standard mode or load balancing
mode. However, this function
takes effect only when VRRP is
operating in load balancing mode.
