The tracking process uses a protocol-specific resolution value to convert the actual metric in the rout-
ing table to a scaled metric in the range 0 to 255. The resolution value is user-configurable and calcu-
lates the scaled metric by dividing a route's cost by the resolution value set for the route type:
• For ISIS, you can set the resolution in the range 1 to 1000, where the default is 10.
• For OSPF, you can set the resolution in the range 1 to 1592, where the default is 1.
• The resolution value used to map static routes is not configurable. By default, FTOS assigns a
metric of 0 to static routes.
• The resolution value used to map RIP routes is not configurable. The RIP hop-count is
automatically multiplied by 16 to scale it. For example, a RIP metric of 16 (unreachable) scales to
256, which considers a route to be DOWN.
Tracking Route Reachability

Step Task
1 Configure object tracking on the
reachability of an IPv4 or IPv6 route.
2 (Optional) Configure the time delay
used before communicating a change
in the status of a tracked route.
3 (Optional) Identify the tracked object
with a text description.
4 (Optional) Display the tracking
configuration and the tracked object's
status.

Valid object IDs are from 1 to 65535.
Enter an IPv4 address in dotted decimal
format; valid IPv4 prefix lengths are from /
0 to /32.
Enter an IPv6 address in X:X:X:X::X
format; valid IPv6 prefix lengths are from /

(Optional) E-Series only: For an IPv4
route, you can enter a VRF name to specify
the virtual routing table to which the
tracked route belongs.
