Dell EMC SmartFabric OS10 User Guide Release 10.5.1

Interface tracking

You can create an object that tracks the line-protocol state of an L2 interface, and monitors its operational up or down status. You can configure up to 500 objects. Each object is assigned a unique ID.

When the link-level status goes down, the tracked resource status is also considered Down. If the link-level status goes up, the tracked resource status is also considered Up. For logical interfaces such as port-channels or VLANs, the link-protocol status is considered Up if any physical interface under the logical interface is Up.

1. Configure object tracking in CONFIGURATION mode, from 1 to 500.

   track object-id

2. (Optional) Enter interface object tracking on the line-protocol state of an L2 interface in OBJECT TRACKING mode.
