1238 CHAPTER 98: TRACK CONFIGURATION
Collaboration Between
the Track Module and
the Detection Modules
You can establish the collaboration between the Track module and the detection
modules through configuration. A detection module probes the link status and
informs the Track module of the probe result. The Track module then changes the
status of the Track object accordingly:
■ If the probe succeeds, the status of the corresponding Track object is Positive;
■ If the probe fails, the status of the corresponding Track object is Negative.
At present, the detection modules that can collaborate with the Track module
include the Network Quality Analyzer (NQA) only. Refer to “NQA Configuration”
on page 1047.
Collaboration Between
the Track Module and
the Application Modules
You can establish the collaboration between the Track module and the application
modules through configuration. If the status of the Track object changes, the Track
module tells the application modules to deal with the change accordingly.
At present, the application modules that can collaborate with the Track module
include:
■ VRRP
■ Static routing
Track Configuration
Task List
To implement the collaboration function, you need to establish collaboration
between the Track module and the detection modules, and between the Track
module and the application modules.
Complete these tasks to configure Track module:
Configuring
Collaboration
Between the Track
Module and the
Detection Modules
Configuring Track-NQA
Collaboration
Through the following configuration, you can establish the collaboration between
the Track module and the NQA, which probes the link status and informs the Track
module of the probe result.
Follow these steps to configure Track-NQA collaboration:
