z
For 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.
z
The 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.
z
If 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.

z
The next hop of the static route from Switch A to Switch C is Switch B.
z
Configure Static Routing-Track-NQA collaboration on Switch A to implement real-time monitoring
of the validity of the static route to Switch C.
