Nortel secure routers and VRRP question???

[eksantrik]

Is there a way to configure to Nortel Secure router 1004 in VRRP mode and make them do the default gateway transition based on the situation of their WAN interface on the other side. (besides checking the LAN connectivity)

What I mean is, besides checking the local connectivity to set the VRRP default gateway, I want the secure routers to check their WAN connections and make their VRRP decisions based on that...just like cisco's track option for the WAN interface..

thanks for the help

Hi eksantrick,

I believe the Secure Routers also use the "track" function.
Here is the command:

configure interface ethernet vrrp track
This command configures tracked interface and track priority.
parameter definition
syntax:
track intfname track_priority < n >
example:
SR/configure/interface/ethernet 0/vrrp 10> track ethernet1 140
NOTE: An Ethernet interface cannot track itself. You must specify a different Ethernet interface to track.

I hope this helps.
