1.2.8 Configuring the Switch to Track a Specified Interface
VRRP interface track function has expanded the backup function. Backup is provided
not only to the interface where the virtual router resides, but also to some other
malfunctioning switch interface. By implementing the following command you can
track some interface. If the interface which is tracked is down, the priority of the
switch including the interface will reduce automatically by the value specified by
value-reduced, thus resulting in comparatively higher priorities of other switches
within the virtual router, one of which will turn to master switch so as to track this
interface.
Perform the following configuration in VLAN interface view and Ethernet interface
view.
