Configure VBRP to Link with Track
Associate VBRP with the concerned uplink interface via Track. When the uplink interface is down, Active automatically reduces its own priority. Here, Standby receives the low-priority packet and switches to Active. For details, refer to the following figure.
Figure 6–1 Configure VBRP to link with Track to monitor Active uplink line
Configuration Condition
Before configuring the VBRP basic functions, first complete the following task:
Configure VBRP to Link with Track to Associate with Uplink Interface
Associate VBRP with the concerned uplink interface via Track. When the uplink interface is down, Active automatically reduces its own priority. Here, Standby receives the low-priority packet and switches to Active.

standby [ group-number ] track { { interface-name} | track-id } [ decrement ]
|
Mandatory
Configure associating with the interface-name interface. When the interface is down, the priority reduces by decrement. By default, reduce the priority to 10.

Configure VBRP to Link with Track to Associate with BFD and RTR
If Track is associated with BFD, RTR and so on, Active can directly associate with the Track group, so as to monitor the line. When the line fails, Active reduces its own priority. Here, Standby receives the low-priority VBRP packet, switch to Active.
