Routing
c. For backup devices, enable and configure SureLink on the VRRP interface.
i. Determine the VRRP interface. Generally, this should be a LAN interface; VRRP+ will
then monitor the LAN using SureLink to determine if the interface has network
connectivity and promote a backup to master if SureLink fails.
(config)> show network vrrp VRRP_test interface
/network/interface/eth
(config)>
ii. Enable SureLink on the interface:
(config)> network interface eth ipv4 surelink enable true
(config)>
iii. Set the amount of time to wait between connectivity tests:
(config)> network interface eth ipv4 surelink interval value
(config)>
where value is any number of weeks, days, hours, minutes, or seconds, and takes the
format number{w|d|h|m|s}.
For example, to set interval to ten minutes, enter 5s:
(config)> network interface eth ipv4 surelink interval 5s
(config)>
iv. Create a SureLink test target:
(config)> add network interface eth ipv4 surelink target end
(config network interface eth ipv4 surelink target 0)>
v. Configure the type of test for the test target:
(config network interface eth ipv4 surelink target 0)> test value
(config network interface eth ipv4 surelink target 0)>
where value is one of:
