Configuring Track-Static Routing Collaboration - H3C S5500-EI series Operation Manual

Operation Manual – Track
H3C S5500-EI Series Ethernet Switches
I. Configuration prerequisites
Before configuring VRRP to monitor a Track object, you need to create a VRRP group
on an interface and configure the virtual IP address of the VRRP group.
II. Configuration procedure
Follow these steps to configure Track-VRRP collaboration:
Enter system view
Enter interface view
Create a VRRP group and
configure its virtual IP
address
Specify a Track object to
be monitored by VRRP
Note:
Do not perform Track object monitoring on the IP address owner.
When the status of the monitored Track object turns from Negative to Positive, the
corresponding master restores its priority automatically.
The monitored Track object can be nonexistent, so that you can first specify the
Track object to be monitored using the vrrp vrid track command, and then create
the Track object using the track command.
Refer to VRRP Configuration for details of VRRP.

1.4.2 Configuring Track-Static Routing Collaboration

You can check the validity of a static route in real time by establishing collaboration
between Track and static routing.
If you specify the next hop but not the egress interface when configuring a static route,
you can associate the static route with a Track object and thus check the validity of the
static route according to the status of the Track object.
If the status of the Track object is Positive, then the next hop of the static route is
reachable, and the configured static route is valid.
If the status of the Track object is Negative, then the next hop of the static route is
unreachable, and the configured static route is invalid.
