Usage guidelines
When the uplink interface of a router in a VRRP group fails, usually the VRRP group cannot be aware of
the uplink interface failure. If the router is the master of the VRRP group, hosts on the LAN are not able
to access external networks because of the uplink failure. This problem can be solved through tracking a
specified uplink interface. After you configure to monitor the uplink interface, when the uplink interface
is down or removed, the priority of the master is automatically decreased by a specified value, allowing
a higher priority router in the VRRP group to become the master.
Before executing the command, create a VRRP group on an interface and configure the virtual IP address
of the VRRP group.
If no interface is specified, the undo vrrp vrid track interface command removes the association between
the VRRP group and any interface.
If you configure an interface to be tracked on a router that is the IP address owner in a VRRP group, the
configuration does not take effect. If the router is not the IP address owner in the VRRP group later, the
configuration takes effect.
