Item Descri
p
tion
Track Object
Object
Configure the track object function: add the Track object to be monitored
and the processing method.
• Object: Specify the serial number of the Track object to be monitored.
You can specify an uncreated object.
• Reduced Priority: If the status of the monitored Track object changes to
negative, the priority of the router decreases by a specified value.
• Switchover: If the status of the monitored Track object changes to
negative, the router immediately switches to the master.
IMPORTANT:
• When the router is the IP address owner, you cannot perform the
configuration.
• When the status of the monitored Track object turns from negative to
positive, the corresponding router restores its priority automatically.
• In the list box of added Track object, the Priority/Switchover column
displays a value or the letter S, where the value represents the decreased
value of the router priority, and S represents the switchover mode.

Interface
Interface
Configure the track interface function: add the specified interface to be
monitored and the processing method.
• Interface: name of the interface to be tracked.
• Reduced Priority: If the status of the monitored interface turns from up to
down, the priority of the router decreases by a specified value.
IMPORTANT:
• When the router is the IP address owner, you cannot perform the
configuration.
• When the status of the tracked interface turns from down to up, the
corresponding router restores its priority automatically.
• The specified interface can be a Layer 3 Ethernet interface, a VLAN
interface, a Layer 3 aggregate interface, a synchronous serial interface,
an asynchronous serial interface, a POS interface, an MP-group
interface, a dialer interface, a BRI interface, or an RPR logical interface.
The Layer 2 protocol used by the tracked synchronous and asynchronous
serial interfaces can be PPP only, and the tracked synchronous and
asynchronous serial interfaces cannot be added to a virtual template or
MP-group; the dialer interface should function as the PPPoE client and
operate in the permanent online mode; the BRI interface should work in
the dedicated line mode.

Network requirements
As shown in Figure 10:
• Ho
st A needs to access Host B on the Internet, using 202.38.160.111/24 as its default gateway.
