Usage Information Use this command to configure the protocol-specific resolution value that converts the

actual metric of an IPv4 route in the routing table to a scaled metric in the range from 0

The UP/DOWN state of a tracked IPv4 route is determined by a user-configurable

threshold (the threshold metric command) for the route's metric in the routing

table. To provide a common tracking interface for different clients, route metrics are

scaled in the range of 0-255, where 0 is connected and 255 is inaccessible.

The protocol-specific resolution value calculates the scaled metric by dividing a route's

cost by the resolution value set for the route protocol:

IPv6 Object Tracking Commands

The following section describes the IPv6 object tracking commands.

The following object tracking commands apply to IPv4 and IPv6:

show running-config track

threshold metric

track interface line-protocol

For ISIS, you can set the resolution in the range of 1-1000, where the default is 10.

For OSPF, you can set the resolution in the range of 1-1592, where the default is 1.

You cannot configure the resolution value used to map static routes. By default,

Dell Networking OS assigns a metric of 0 to static routes.

You cannot configure the resolution value used to map RIP routes. The RIP hop-

count is automatically multiplied by 16 to scale it. For example, a RIP metric of 16

(unreachable) scales to 256, which considers the route to be DOWN.

and/or DOWN state of a tracked route.
