1.1 Track Overview

Figure 1-1 Collaboration through the Track module

The Track module is used to implement collaboration between different modules.

The collaboration here involves three parts: the application modules, the Track module,

and the detection modules. These modules collaborate with one another through

collaboration objects. That is, the detection modules trigger the application modules to

perform certain operations through the Track module. More specifically, the detection

modules probe the link status, network performance and so on, and inform the

application modules of the detection result through the Track module. After the

application modules are aware of the changes of network status, they deal with the

changes accordingly to avoid communication interruption and network performance

degradation.

The Track module works between the application modules and the detection modules

and is mainly used to obscure the difference of various detection modules to provide a

unified interface for application modules.

Operation Manual – Track

H3C S5500-EI Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 Track Configuration

1-2

1.1.1 Collaboration Between the Track Module and the Detection Modules

You can establish the collaboration between the Track module and the detection

modules through configuration. A detection module probes the link status and informs

the Track module of the probe result. The Track module then changes the status of the

Track object accordingly:

zIf the probe succeeds, the status of the corresponding Track object is Positive;

zIf the probe fails, the status of the corresponding Track object is Negative.

At present, the detection modules that can collaborate with the Track module include

the Network Quality Analyzer (NQA) only. Refer to NQA Configuration for details of

NQA.

1.1.2 Collaboration Between the Track Module and the Application Modules

You can establish the collaboration between the Track module and the application

modules through configuration. If the status of the Track object changes, the Track

module tells the application modules to deal with the change accordingly.

At present, the application modules that can collaborate with the Track module include:

zVRRP

zStatic routing

1.2 Track Configuration Task List

To implement the collaboration function, you need to establish collaboration between

the Track module and the detection modules, and between the Track module and the

application modules.

1.3 Configuring Collaboration Between the Track Module and

the Detection Modules

1.3.1 Configuring Track-NQA Collaboration

Through the following configuration, you can establish the collaboration between the

Track module and the NQA, which probes the link status and informs the Track module

of the probe result.

Follow these steps to configure Track-NQA collaboration:

To do… Use the command… Remarks

Create a Track object and

associate it with the

specified Reaction entry

of the NQA test group

Required

No Track object is created

by default.

Caution:

When you configure a Track object, the specified NQA test group and Reaction entry

can be nonexistent. In this case, the status of the configured Track object is Invalid.

1.4 Configuring Collaboration Between the Track Module and

the Application Modules

1.4.1 Configuring Track-VRRP Collaboration

Through the Track-VRRP collaboration, you can:

zMonitor the upper link. If there is a fault on the upper link of the master of a VRRP

group, hosts in the LAN cannot access theexternal network through the master. In

this case, the status of the monitored Track object changes to Negative, and the

priority of the master thus decreases by a specified value, allowing ahigher priority

backup in the VRRP group to become the master to maintain proper

communication between the hosts in the LAN and the external network.

zMonitor the master on a backup. If there is a fault on the master, the backup

working in the switchover mode will switch to the master immediately to maintain

normal communication.

I. Configuration prerequisites

Before configuring VRRP to monitor a Track object, you need to create a VRRP group

on an interface and configure the virtual IP address of the VRRP group.

II. Configuration procedure

To do… Use the command… Remarks

Enter system view system-view —

Enter interface view interface interface-type

Create a VRRP group and

configure its virtual IP

vrrp vrid virtual-router-id

track track-entry-number

Required

No Track object is

specified for VRRP by

default.

Note:

zDo not perform Track object monitoring on the IP address owner.

zWhen the status of the monitored Track object turns from Negative to Positive, the

corresponding master restores its priority automatically.

zThe monitored Track object can be nonexistent, so that you can first specify the

Track object to be monitored using the vrrp vrid track command, and then create

the Track object using the track command.

zRefer to VRRP Configuration for details of VRRP.

1.4.2 Configuring Track-Static Routing Collaboration

You can check the validity of a static route in real time by establishing collaboration

between Track and static routing.

If you specify the next hop but not the egress interface when configuring a static route,

you can associate the static route with a Track object and thus check the validity of the

static route according to the status of the Track object.

zIf the status of the Track object is Positive, then the next hop of the static route is

reachable, and the configured static route is valid.

zIf the status of the Track object is Negative, then the next hop of the static route is

unreachable, and the configured static route is invalid.

Note:

zFor the configuration of Track-Static Routing collaboration, the specified static route

can be an existent or nonexistent one. For an existent static route, the static route

and the specified Track object are associated directly; for a nonexistent static route,

the system creates the static route and then associates it with the specified Track

object.

zThe Track object to be associated with the static route can be a nonexistent one.

After you use the track command to create the Track object, the association takes

effect.

zIf a static route needs route recursion, the associated Track object must monitor the

next hop of the recursive route instead of that of the static route; otherwise, a valid

route may be considered invalid.

zFor details of static route configuration, refer to the Static Routing Configuration part

in IPv4 Routing Configuration.

1.6 Track Configuration Example

1.6.1 VRRP-Track-NQA Collaboration Configuration Example

I. Network requirements

zHost A needs to access Host B on the Internet. The default gateway of Host A is

10.1.1.10/24.

zSwitch A and Switch B belong to VRRP group 1, whose virtual IP address is

10.1.1.10.

zWhen Switch A works normally, packets from Host A to Host B are forwarded

through Switch A. When VRRP finds that there is a fault on the upper link of Switch

A through NQA, packets from Host A to Host B are forwarded through Switch B.
