Figure 24-5. LAGs using ECMP without Shared LAG State Tracking
To avoid packet loss, traffic must be re-directed through the next lowest-cost link (R3 to R4). FTOS has the
ability to bring LAG 2 down in the event that LAG 1 fails, so that traffic can be re-directed, as described.
This is what is meant by Shared LAG State Tracking. To achieve this functionality, you must group LAG 1
and LAG 2 into a single entity, called a
failover group
.
Configure Shared LAG State Tracking
To configure
Shared LAG State Tracking
, you configure a failover group:
In
Figure 24-6
, LAGs 1 and 2 have been placed into to the same failover group.
Figure 24-6. Configuring Shared LAG State Tracking
View the failover group configuration using the
show running-configuration po-failover-group
command, as shown in
Figure 24-7
.
