Configuring Enhanced Object Tracking
This chapter describes how to configure enhanced object tracking on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.
This feature provides a more complete alternative to the Hot Standby Routing Protocol (HSRP) tracking
mechanism. which allows you to track the line-protocol state of an interface. If the line protocol state of
an interface goes down, the HSRP priority of the interface is reduced and another HSRP device with a
higher priority becomes active. The enhanced object tracking feature separates the tracking mechanism
from HSRP and creates a separate, standalone tracking process that can be used by processes other than
HSRP. This allows tracking other objects in addition to the interface line-protocol state. A client process,
such as HSRP, can register an interest in tracking objects and request notification when the tracked object
changes state.This feature increases the availability and speed of recovery of a routing system and
decreases outages and outage duration.
Note
Enhanced object tracking is not supported on switches running the LAN base feature set.
Unless otherwise noted, the term
switch
refers to a Catalyst 4500 series switch.
