Configuring Track

About Track

The Track module works between application modules and detection modules. It shields the differences between various detection modules from application modules.

Collaboration mechanism

The Track module collaborates with detection modules and application modules.

As shown in Figure 1, collaboration is enabled when you associate the Track module with a detection module and an application module, and it operates as follows:

1.     The detection module probes specific objects such as interface status, link status, network reachability, and network performance, and informs the Track module of detection results.

2.     The Track module sends the detection results to the application module.

3.     When notified of changes for the tracked object, the application modules can react to avoid communication interruption and network performance degradation.

Figure 1 Collaboration through the Track module

 

Collaboration between the Track module and a detection module

The detection module sends the detection result of the tracked object to the Track module. The Track module changes the status of the track entry as follows:

·     If the tracked object operates correctly, the state of the track entry is Positive. For example, the track entry state is Positive in one of the following conditions:

¡     The target interface is up.

¡     The target network is reachable.

·     If the tracked object does not operate correctly, the state of the track entry is Negative. For example, the track entry state is Negative in one of the following conditions:

¡     The target interface is down.

¡     The target network is unreachable.

·     If the detection result is invalid, the state of the track entry is NotReady. For example, the track entry state is NotReady if its associated NQA operation does not exist.

Collaboration between the Track module and an application module

The track module reports the track entry status changes to the application module. The application module can then take correct actions to avoid communication interruption and network performance degradation.

Supported detection modules

The following detection modules can be associated with the Track module:

·     NQA.

·     BFD.

·     CFD.

·     Interface management.

·     Route management.

You can associate a track entry with an object of a detection module, such as the state of an interface or reachability of an IP route. The state of the track entry is determined by the state of the tracked object.

You can also associate a track entry with a list of objects called a tracked list. The state of a tracked list is determined by the states of all objects in the list. The following types of tracked lists are supported:

·     Boolean AND list—The state of a Boolean AND list is determined by the states of the tracked objects using the Boolean AND operation.

·     Boolean OR list—The state of a Boolean OR list is determined by the states of the tracked objects using the Boolean OR operation.

·     Percentage threshold list—The state of a percentage threshold list is determined by comparing the percentage of Positive and Negative objects in the list with the percentage thresholds configured for the list.

·     Weight threshold list—The state of a weight threshold list is determined by comparing the weight of Positive and Negative objects in the list with the weight thresholds configured for the list.

Supported application modules

The following application modules can be associated with the Track module:

·     VRRP.

·     Static routing.

·     PBR.

·     Interface backup.

·     VPLS.

·     VXLAN.

·     MPLS L2VPN.

·     EAA.

Restrictions and guidelines: Track configuration

When configuring a track entry for an application module, you can set a notification delay to avoid immediate notification of status changes.

When the delay is not configured and the route convergence is slower than the link state change notification, communication failures occur. For example, when the master in a VRRP group detects an uplink interface failure through Track, Track immediately notifies the master to decrease its priority. A backup with a higher priority then preempts as the new master. When the failed uplink interface recovers, the Track module immediately notifies the original master to restore its priority. If the uplink route has not recovered, forwarding failure will occur.

Collaboration application example

The following is an example of collaboration between NQA, Track, and static routing.

Configure a static route with next hop 192.168.0.88 on the device. If the next hop is reachable, the static route is valid. If the next hop becomes unreachable, the static route is invalid. For this purpose, configure NQA-Track-static routing collaboration as follows:

1.     Create an NQA operation to monitor the accessibility of IP address 192.168.0.88.

2.     Create a track entry and associate it with the NQA operation.

¡     When next hop 192.168.0.88 is reachable, NQA sends the result to the Track module. The Track module sets the track entry to Positive state.

¡     When the next hop becomes unreachable, NQA sends the result to the Track module. The Track module sets the track entry to Negative state.

3.     Associate the track entry with the static route.

¡     When the track entry is in Positive state, the static routing module considers the static route to be valid.

¡     When the track entry is in Negative state, the static routing module considers the static route to be invalid.

Associating Track with a detection module object

Associating Track with NQA

About this task

NQA supports multiple operation types to analyze network performance and service quality. For example, an NQA operation can periodically detect whether a destination is reachable, or whether a TCP connection can be established.

An NQA operation operates as follows when it is associated with a track entry:

·     If the consecutive probe failures reach the specified threshold, the NQA module notifies the Track module that the tracked object has malfunctioned. The Track module then sets the track entry to Negative state.

·     If the specified threshold is not reached, the NQA module notifies the Track module that the tracked object is operating correctly. The Track module then sets the track entry to Positive state.

For more information about NQA, see Network Management and Monitoring Configuration Guide.

Prerequisites for associating the Track module with an application module

Create a track entry first before you associate it with an application module.

An application module might obtain incorrect track entry status information if the associated track entry does not exist.

Associating Track with VRRP

About this task

When VRRP is operating in standard mode or load balancing mode, associate the Track module with the VRRP group to implement the following actions:

·     Change the priority of a router according to the status of the uplink. If a fault occurs on the uplink of the router, the VRRP group is not aware of the uplink failure. If the router is the master, hosts in the LAN cannot access the external network. To resolve this problem, configure a detection module-Track-VRRP collaboration. The detection module monitors the status of the uplink of the router and notifies the Track module of the detection result.

When the uplink fails, the detection module notifies the Track module to change the status of the monitored track entry to Negative. The priority of the master decreases by a user-specified value. A router with a higher priority in the VRRP group becomes the master.

·     Monitor the master on a backup. If a fault occurs on the master, the backup operating in switchover mode will switch to the master immediately to maintain normal communication.

When VRRP is operating in load balancing mode, associate the Track module with the VRRP VF to implement the following functions:

·     Change the priority of the AVF according to its uplink state. When the uplink of the AVF fails, the track entry changes to Negative state. The weight of the AVF decreases by a user-specified value. The VF with a higher priority becomes the new AVF to forward packets.

·     Monitor the AVF status from the LVF. When the AVF fails, the LVF that is operating in switchover mode becomes the new AVF to ensure continuous forwarding.

For more information about configuring VRRP, see "Configuring VRRP."

Restrictions and guidelines for Track association with VRRP

·     VRRP tracking does not take effect on an IP address owner. The configuration takes effect when the router does not act as the IP address owner.

An IP address owner is the router with its interface IP address used as the virtual IP address of the VRRP group.

·     When the status of the track entry changes from Negative to Positive or NotReady, the associated router or VF restores its priority automatically.

Associating Track with a VRRP group

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enter interface view.

interface interface-type interface-number

3.     Associate a track entry with a VRRP group.

vrrp [ ipv6 ] vrid virtual-router-id track track-entry-number { forwarder-switchover member-ip ip-address | priority reduced [ priority-reduced ] switchover | weight reduced [ weight-reduced ] }

By default, no track entry is associated with a VRRP group.

This command is supported when VRRP is operating in both standard mode and load balancing mode.

Associating Track with a VRRP VF

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enter interface view.

interface interface-type interface-number

3.     Associate Track with a VRRP VF.

vrrp [ ipv6 ] vrid virtual-router-id track track-entry-number { forwarder-switchover member-ip ip-address | priority reduced [ priority-reduced ] switchover | weight reduced [ weight-reduced ] }

By default, no track entry is associated with a VRRP VF.

This command is configurable when VRRP is operating in standard mode or load balancing mode. However, the configuration takes effect only when VRRP is operating in load balancing mode.

Associating Track with static routing

About this task

A static route is a manually configured route to route packets. For more information about static route configuration, see Layer 3—IP Routing Configuration Guide.

Static routes cannot adapt to network topology changes. Link failures or network topological changes can make the routes unreachable and cause communication interruption.

To resolve this problem, configure another route to back up the static route. When the static route is reachable, packets are forwarded through the static route. When the static route is unreachable, packets are forwarded through the backup route.

To check the accessibility of a static route in real time, associate the Track module with the static route.

If you specify the next hop but not the output interface when configuring a static route, you can configure the static routing-Track-detection module collaboration. This collaboration enables you to verify the accessibility of the static route based on the track entry state.

·     If the track entry is in Positive state, the following conditions exist:

¡     The next hop of the static route is reachable.

¡     The configured static route is valid.

·     If the track entry is in Negative state, the following conditions exist:

¡     The next hop of the static route is not reachable.

¡     The configured static route is invalid.

·     If the track entry is in NotReady state, the following conditions exist:

¡     The accessibility of the next hop of the static route is unknown.

¡     The static route is valid.

Restrictions and guidelines

In static routing-Track-NQA collaboration, you must configure the same VPN instance name for the NQA operation and the next hop of the static route. Otherwise, the accessibility detection cannot operate correctly.

If a static route needs route recursion, the associated track entry must monitor the next hop of the recursive route. The next hop of the static route cannot be monitored. Otherwise, a valid route might be considered invalid.

Associating Track with an IPv4 static route

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Associate an IPv4 static route with a track entry to check the accessibility of the next hop.

Public network:

ip route-static { dest-address { mask-length | mask } | group group-name } { interface-type interface-number [ next-hop-address ] track track-entry-number | next-hop-address track track-entry-number | vpn-instance d-vpn-instance-name next-hop-address track track-entry-number } [ preference preference ] [ tag tag-value ] [ description text ]

VPN:

ip route-static vpn-instance s-vpn-instance-name { dest-address { mask-length | mask } | group group-name } { interface-type interface-number [ next-hop-address ] track track-entry-number | next-hop-address [ public ] track track-entry-number | vpn-instance d-vpn-instance-name next-hop-address track track-entry-number } [ preference preference ] [ tag tag-value ] [ description text ]

ipv6 route-static ipv6-address prefix-length { interface-type interface-number [ next-hop-address ] track track-entry-number | [ vpn-instance d-vpn-instance-name ] next-hop-address track track-entry-number } [ preference preference ] [ tag tag-value ] [ description text ]

VPN:

ipv6 route-static vpn-instance s-vpn-instance-name ipv6-address prefix-length { interface-type interface-number [ next-hop-address ] track track-entry-number | vpn-instance d-vpn-instance-name next-hop-address track track-entry-number } [ preference preference ] [ tag tag-value ] [ description text ]

By default, an IPv6 static route is not associated with any track entries.

Associating Track with PBR

About this task

PBR uses user-defined policies to route packets. You can specify parameters in a PBR policy to guide the forwarding of the packets that match specific criteria. For more information about PBR, see Layer 3—IP Routing Configuration Guide.

PBR cannot detect the availability of any action taken on packets. When an action is not available, packets processed by the action might be discarded. For example, if the output interface specified for PBR fails, PBR cannot detect the failure, and continues to forward matching packets out of the interface.

To enable PBR to detect topology changes and improve the flexibility of the PBR application, configure Track-PBR-detection module collaboration.

After you associate a track entry with an apply clause, the detection module associated with the track entry sends Track the detection result of the availability of the tracked object.

·     The Positive state of the track entry indicates that the object is available, and the apply clause is valid.

·     The Negative state of the track entry indicates that the object is not available, and the apply clause is invalid.

·     The NotReady state of the track entry indicates that the apply clause is valid.

The following objects can be associated with a track entry:

·     Output interface.

·     Next hop.

·     Default output interface.

·     Default next hop.

When you associate Track with an AC on a VPLS network, the AC is up only when one or more of the associated track entries are positive.

Associating Track with an AC helps detect AC failures. For example, when an AC is a VE-L2VPN interface, the AC interface will not go down upon a link failure because the interface is a virtual interface. To resolve the problem, you can associate Track with the AC to detect failures on the link that connects the PE-agg to the L3VPN or IP backbone. When a failure occurs on the link, the VE-L2VPN interface is set to down. Consequently, the PW bound to the AC goes down. If the PW has a backup PW, traffic can be switched to the backup PW. For more information about VE-L2VPN interfaces and L2VPN access to L3VPN or IP backbone, see MPLS Configuration Guide.

An AC can be a Layer 3 interface.

Associating Track with EAA

About this task

You can configure EAA track event monitor policies to monitor the positive-to-negative or negative-to-positive state changes of track entries.

·     If you specify only one track entry for a policy, EAA triggers the policy when it detects the specified state change on the track entry.

·     If you specify multiple track entries for a policy, EAA triggers the policy when it detects the specified state change on the last monitored track entry. For example, if you configure a policy to monitor the positive-to-negative state change of multiple track entries, EAA triggers the policy when the last positive track entry monitored by the policy is changed to the Negative state.

You can set a suppression time for a track event monitor policy. The timer starts when the policy is triggered. The system does not process messages that report the monitored track event until the timer times out.

For more information about EAA, see Network Management and Monitoring Configuration Guide.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

Track configuration examples

Example: Configuring VRRP-Track-NQA collaboration

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 2:

·     Host A requires access to Host B. The default gateway of Host A is 10.1.1.10/24.

·     Router A and Router B belong to VRRP group 1. The virtual IP address of VRRP group 1 is 10.1.1.10.

Configure VRRP-Track-NQA collaboration to monitor the uplink on the master and meet the following requirements:

·     When Router A operates correctly, it forwards packets from Host A to Host B.

·     When NQA detects a fault on the uplink of Router A, Router B forwards packets from Host A to Host B.

Figure 2 Network diagram

Procedure

1.     Configure the IP address of each interface, as shown in Figure 2. (Details not shown.)

2.     Configure an NQA operation on Router A:

# Create an NQA operation with administrator name admin and operation tag test.

[RouterA] nqa entry admin test

# Specify the ICMP echo operation type.

[RouterA-nqa-admin-test] type icmp-echo

# Specify 10.1.2.2 as the destination address of ICMP echo requests.

[RouterA-nqa-admin-test-icmp-echo] destination ip 10.1.2.2

# Configure the ICMP echo operation to repeat every 100 milliseconds.

[RouterA-nqa-admin-test-icmp-echo] frequency 100

# Configure reaction entry 1 so that five consecutive probe failures will trigger collaboration with the Track module.

[RouterA-nqa-admin-test-icmp-echo] reaction 1 checked-element probe-fail threshold-type consecutive 5 action-type trigger-only

[RouterA-nqa-admin-test-icmp-echo] quit

# Start the NQA operation.

[RouterA] nqa schedule admin test start-time now lifetime forever

3.     On Router A, configure track entry 1, and associate it with reaction entry 1 of the NQA operation.

# Configure the master to send VRRP packets every 500 centiseconds.

[RouterA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] vrrp vrid 1 timer advertise 500

# Configure Router A to operate in preemptive mode and set the preemption delay to 5000 centiseconds.

[RouterA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] vrrp vrid 1 preempt-mode delay 5000

# Associate VRRP group 1 with track entry 1 and decrease the router priority by 30 when the state of track entry 1 changes to negative.

[RouterA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] vrrp vrid 1 track 1 priority reduced 30

5.     Configure VRRP on Router B:

# Specify VRRPv2 to run on GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

Example: Configuring BFD for the VRRP master to monitor the uplink

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 4:

·     Router A and Router B belong to VRRP group 1. The virtual IP address of VRRP group 1 is 192.168.0.10.

·     The default gateway of the hosts in the LAN is 192.168.0.10.

Configure VRRP-Track-BFD collaboration to monitor the uplink on the master and meet the following requirements:

·     When Router A operates correctly, hosts in the LAN access the Internet through Router A.

·     When Router A detects that the uplink is down through BFD, Router B can preempt as the master. The hosts in the LAN can access the Internet through Router B.

The output shows that when Router A detects that the uplink fails through BFD, it decreases its priority by 20. Router B then preempts as the master.

Example: Configuring static routing-Track-NQA collaboration

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 5:

·     Router A is the default gateway of the hosts in network 20.1.1.0/24.

·     Router D is the default gateway of the hosts in network 30.1.1.0/24.

·     Hosts in the two networks communicate with each other through static routes.

To ensure network availability, configure route backup and static routing-Track-NQA collaboration on Router A and Router D as follows:

·     On Router A, assign a higher priority to the static route to 30.1.1.0/24 with next hop Router B. This route is the master route. The static route to 30.1.1.0/24 with the next hop Router C acts as the backup route. When the master route is unavailable, the backup route takes effect.

·     On Router D, assign a higher priority to the static route to 20.1.1.0/24 with next hop Router B. This route is the master route. The static route to 20.1.1.0/24 with next hop Router C acts as the backup route. When the master route is unavailable, the backup route takes effect.

Example: Configuring VRRP-Track-interface management collaboration

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 7:

·     Host A requires access to Host B. The default gateway of Host A is 10.1.1.10/24.

·     Router A and Router B belong to VRRP group 1. The virtual IP address of VRRP group 1 is 10.1.1.10.

Configure VRRP-Track-interface management collaboration to monitor the uplink interface on the master and meet the following requirements:

·     When Router A operates correctly, Router A forwards packets from Host A to Host B.

·     When VRRP detects a fault on the uplink interface of Router A through the interface management module, Router B forwards packets from Host A to Host B.

Procedure

1.     Configure the IP address of each interface, as shown in Figure 7. (Details not shown.)

2.     Configure Router A:

# Configure track entry 1, and associate it with the link status of the uplink interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/2.

[RouterA] track 1 interface gigabitethernet 1/0/2

[RouterA-track-1] quit

# Create VRRP group 1, and configure virtual IP address 10.1.1.10 for the group.

The output shows that Router A becomes the backup, and Router B becomes the master. Router B forwards packets from Host A to Host B.

Example: Configuring VRRP-Track-route management collaboration

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 8:

·     Host A requires access to Host B. The default gateway of Host A is 10.1.1.10/24.

·     Router A and Router B belong to VRRP group 1. The virtual IP address of VRRP group 1 is 10.1.1.10.

·     BGP peer relationships are established between Router A and Router C and between Router B and Router D. Router C and Router D advertise the default route 0.0.0.0/0 to Router A and Router B.

Configure VRRP-Track-route management collaboration to meet the following requirements:

·     When Router A operates correctly, Router A forwards packets from Host A to Host B.

·     When VRRP detects the removal of the default route from the routing table of Router A through route management, Router B forwards packets from Host A to Host B.

Figure 8 Network diagram

Procedure

1.     Configure the IP address of each interface, as shown in Figure 8. (Details not shown.)

2.     Establish an IBGP peer relationship between Router A and Router C, and configure Router C to advertise the default route 0.0.0.0/0 to Router A.

3.     Configure Router B and Router D in the same way Router A and Router C are configured. (Details not shown.)

4.     Configure Track and VRRP on Router A:

# Configure track entry 1, and associate it with the default route 0.0.0.0/0.

[RouterA] track 1 ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 reachability
