25.2.5 Applying Dynamic Monitoring

Before you can apply the dynamic monitoring functionality to static routes, you must set an appropriate interval for polling the gateway and adjust the timing for route deletion and generation.

Points to note

To set the polling interval and the number of consecutive poll failures or responses, use the ipv6 route static poll-interval command and the ipv6 route static poll-multiplier command. To apply dynamic monitoring to a static route, set the poll parameter in the ipv6 route command.

Command examples

  1. (config)# ipv6 route static poll-interval 10

    Specifies 10 seconds as the polling interval for dynamic monitoring.

  2. (config)# ipv6 route static poll-multiplier 4 2

    Specifies 4 as the number of consecutive failures (invalidcount) and 2 as the number of consecutive responses (restorecount) for dynamic monitoring.

  3. (config)# ipv6 route 2001:db8:ffff:3::/64 2001:db8:3:1::2 poll

    (config)# ipv6 route 2001:db8:ffff:4::/64 2001:db8:3:1::3 poll

    Applies dynamic monitoring to static routes 2001:db8:ffff:3::/64 and 2001:db8:ffff:4::/64.
