Track overview

Introduction to collaboration

The track module works between application and detection modules, as shown in Figure 41. It shields the

differences between various detection modules from application modules.

Collaboration is enabled after you associate the track module with a detection module and an

application module respectively. The detection module monitors specific objects such as interface status,

link status, network reachability, and network performance, and informs the track module of detection

results. The track module sends the detection results to the associated application module, and the

application module takes actions when the tracked object changes its state.
