ip-monitoring

Syntax

Hierarchy Level

Description

Specify a global IP address monitoring threshold and weight, and the interval between pings (retry-interval) and the number of consecutive ping failures (retry-count) permitted before an IP address is considered unreachable for all IP addresses monitored by the redundancy group. Also specify IP addresses, a monitoring weight, a redundant Ethernet interface number, and a secondary IP monitoring ping source for each IP address, for the redundancy group to monitor.

Options

IPv4 address

The address to be continually monitored for reachability. You also set up a secondary IP address to allow testing from the secondary node.

Note:

All monitored object failures, including IP monitoring, are deducted from the redundancy group threshold priority. Other monitored objects include interface monitor, SPU monitor, cold-sync monitor, and NPC monitor (on supported platforms).

interface interface secondary-ip-address ip-address;

Define source address for monitoring packets on secondary link.

global-threshold

Define global threshold for IP monitoring. See global-threshold.

  • Default: 0

  • Range: 0-255

global-weight

Define global weight for IP monitoring. See global-weight.

  • Default: 255

  • Range: 0-255

retry-count

Number of retries needed to declare reachablity failure. See retry-count (Chassis Cluster).

  • Default: 5

  • Range: 5-15

retry-interval

Define the time interval in seconds between retries. See retry-interval (Chassis Cluster).

  • Default: 1

  • Range: 1-30
