network-monitor

This command configures monitored network entities for the HA Network Monitor feature, whereby the device pings the entities and if a user-defined number of entities are offline, triggers an HA switchover.

Syntax

(config-network)# high-availability network-monitor <Index>
(network-monitor-<Index>)# 

Command	Description
Index	Defines the table row index.
dest-address <IP Addresses>	Defines the IP address of the destination to ping. You can configure multiple IP addresses, where each is separated by a comma or space.
network-interface	Assigns a local IP network interface (listed in the IP Interfaces table) from where the device sends the ping requests.
ping-count	Defines the number of consecutive failed pings to the monitored entity, before the device considers the entity as unavailable.

Example

This example configures a monitored entity with three destinations, pings sent from IP interface "OAMP", ping timeout for a response is 1000 ms, and HA switchover triggered after three failed pings:

(config-network)# high-availability network-monitor 0
(network-monitor-0#) dest-address 10.4.4.69,10.4.5.60
(network-monitor-0#) network-interface OAMP
(network-monitor-0#) ping-timeout 1000
(network-monitor-0#) ping-count 3
