If the next-hop address in the ARP cache ages out for a route tracked for its reachability, an attempt is made to
regenerate the ARP cache entry to if the next-hop address appears before considering the route DOWN.
Related Commands
• show track ipv6 route – display information about tracked IPv6 routes, including conguration, current state,
and clients which track the route.
• track ipv6 route reachability – congure object tracking on the reachability of an IPv4 route.
track resolution ipv6 route
Congure the protocol-specic resolution value used to scale an IPv6 route metric.
Syntax
track resolution ipv6 route {isis resolution-value | ospf resolution-value}
To return to the default setting, use the no track object-id command.
Parameters
object-id Enter the ID number of the tracked object. Use the range to 1 to 500.
isis resolution-value Enter the resolution used to convert the metric in the routing table for ISIS routes to a
scaled metric.
ospf resolution-
value
Enter the resolution used to convert the metric in the routing table for OSPF routes to a
scaled metric.

Usage Information
Use this command to congure the protocol-specic resolution value that converts the actual metric of an IPv6
route in the routing table to a scaled metric in the range 0 to 255.
The UP/DOWN state of a tracked IPv6 route is determined by the user-congurable threshold (the threshold
metric command) for a route’s metric in the routing table. To provide a common tracking interface for dierent
clients, route metrics are scaled in the range 0 to 255, where 0 is connected and 255 is inaccessible.
The protocol-specic resolution value calculates the scaled metric by dividing a route's cost by the resolution value
set for the route protocol:
• For ISIS, you can set the resolution in the range 1 to 1000, where the default is 10.
• For OSPF, you can set the resolution in the range 1 to 1592, where the default is 1.
