Usage
Use this command to create an object that tracks the reachability of an IPv4 route. In order for a route's
Information
reachability to be tracked, the route must appear as an entry in the routing table.
A tracked IPv4 route is considered to match an entry in the routing table only if the exact IPv4 address
and prefix length match a table entry. For example, when configured as a tracked route, 10.0.0.0/24
does not match the routing table entry 10.0.0.0/8. If no route-table entry has the exact IPv4 address and
prefix length, the status of the tracked route is considered to be DOWN.
When you configure IPv4 route reachability as a tracked object, the UP/DOWN state of the tracked
route is also determined by the entry of the next-hop address in the ARP cache. A tracked route is
considered to be reachable if there is an ARP cache entry for the route's next-hop address.
If the next-hop address in the ARP cache ages out for a route tracked for its reachability, an attempt is
made to regenerate the ARP cache entry to see if the next-hop address appears before considering the
route DOWN.
Enter the ID number of the tracked object. Range: 1 to 65535.
Enter an IPv4 address in dotted decimal format. Valid IPv4 prefix lengths are from /0 to /
32.
(Optional) E-Series only: You can configure a VPN routing and forwarding (VRF)
instance to specify the virtual routing table to which the tracked route belongs.
