ExtremeWare Software 7.0.0 Command Reference Guide
363
config slb failover ping-check
config slb failover ping-check <ip address> {frequency <seconds> timeout
<seconds>}
Description
Configures the SLB device to actively determine if a remote gateway is reachable by performing a ping.
Syntax Description
Default
The default frequency is 1 second.
The default timeout is 3 seconds.
Usage Guidelines
The frequency must be less than the timeout.
If the external gateway is not reachable, the virtual servers failover to the remote SLB device.
Do not configure ping-check to the remote SLB switch. If you configure ping-check to the remote SLB
switch and the remote switch fails, the local switch also fails.
Example
The following command sets the IP address of the remote gateway to 10.10.10.21 with a ping frequency
of 5 seconds and a timeout of 10 seconds:
config slb failover ping-check 10.10.10.21 frequency 5 timeout 10
