Configure Monitor Object

Configuration Condition

Before configuring the monitor object, first complete the following task:

• Configure the Track group

Configure Monitoring Interface Status

We can configure the monitor object as the interface status in the Track group. When the interface network layer protocol is up, the monitor object status is up; when the interface network layer protocol is down, the monitor object status is down.

Table 9–3 Configure monitoring interface status

Configure Monitoring L2 Ethernet Interface Status

We can configure the monitor object as the status of the L2 Ethernet interface in the Track group. When the L2 Ethernet interface is up, the monitor object status is up; when the L2 Ethernet interface is down, the monitor object status is down.

Table 9–4 Configure monitoring the L2 Ethernet interface status

Configure Monitoring Direct Route of Interface

We can configure the monitor object as the direct route of the interface in the Track group. When the interface has IP address and the status is up, the status of the monitor object is up; when the interface does not have IP address or the status is down, the status of the monitor object is down.

Table 9–5 Configure monitoring the direct route of the interface

Configure Monitoring Route Reachable

We can configure the monitor object as the route reachable in the Track group. When there is the route of the configured network, the status of the monitor object is up; when there is no route of the configured network, the status of the monitor object is down.

Table 9–6 Configure monitoring route reachable

Configure Monitoring RTR Group

We can configure the monitor object as the RTR group in the Track group. When the status of the RTR group is reachable, the status of the monitor object is up; when the status of the RTR group is unreachable, the status of the monitor object is down. RTR (Response Time Reporter) is one tool of detecting and monitoring the network. Track can monitor the RTR group to monitor the network communication.

  For the configuration of the RTR group, refer to SLA Configuration Manual.

Configure Monitoring Aggregation Group Status

We can configure the monitored object in the Track group as the aggregation group status. When the aggregation group status is up, the monitored object state is up; when the aggregation group state is down, the monitored object state is down.

Table 9–8 Configure monitoring the aggregation group status

Configure Monitoring BFD Session

We can configure the monitor object as the BFD session in the Track group. When the status of the BFD session is up, the status of the monitor object is up; when the status of the BFD session is down, the status of the monitor object is down. The BFD protocol is one set of standard unified detection mechanism, used to fast detect, monitor the path in the network or the connection status of the IP route forwarding. The network connection status can be monitored indirectly by monitoring the BFD session.
