Configuring Enhanced Object Tracking Features
Configuring Static Routing Support
Static routing support using enhanced object tracking provides the ability for the switch to use ICMP
pings to identify when a preconfigured static route or a DHCP route goes down. When tracking is
enabled, the system tracks the state of the route and informs the client when that state changes. Static
route object tracking uses Cisco IP SLAs to generate ICMP pings to monitor the state of the connection
to the primary gateway.
For more information about Cisco IP SLAs support on the switch, see

You use this process to configure static route object tracking:
Step 1
Configure a primary interface for static routing or for DHCP.ex
Step 2
Configure an IP SLAs agent to ping an IP address using a primary interface and a track object to monitor
the state of the agent.
Step 3
Configure a default static default route using a secondary interface. This route is used only if the primary
route is removed.
