Configuring LiveLink for a Smart Load Balancing and Failover and SLB (Auto-Fallback Disable) Team
LiveLink is a feature of BASP that is available for the Smart Load Balancing (SLB) and SLB (Auto-Fallback Disable) type of teaming. The purpose of
LiveLink is to detect link loss beyond the switch and to route traffic only through team members that have a live link.
Read the following notes before you attempt to configure LiveLink.
NOTES:
Before you begin configuring LiveLink™, review the description of LiveLink. Also verify that each probe target you plan to specify is available
and working. If the IP address of the probe target changes for any reason, LiveLink must be reconfigured. If the MAC address of the probe
target changes for any reason, you must restart the team (see "Troubleshooting").
A probe target must be on the same subnet as the team, have a valid (not a broadcast, multicast, or unicast), statically-assigned IP address,
and be highly available (always on).
To ensure network connectivity to the probe target, ping the probe target from the team.
You can specify up to four probe targets.
The IP address assigned to either a probe target or team member cannot have a zero as the first or last octet.
