Ip Sla Tuning

blackswans · ‎11-16-2009

Hi,

This sla is failing too much and my route fails very often. How can I tune it? I want it even it misses some ping it can miss some more pings to change the route. Say 15 ping is lost change the route. How can I do that ?

ip sla 1

icmp-echo 10.10.10.10

timeout 2000

frequency 3

ip sla schedule 1 life forever start-time now

Hello,

I think that you can't specify a concrete number of times for the ping.

I suggest you specify a following configuration.

-----------------------------

ip sla 1

icmp-echo 10.10.10.10 source-ip x.x.x.x

timeout 2000

frequency 3

ip sla schedule 1 life forever start-time now

track 1 rtr 1

delay down 10

-----------------------------

It means it waits another 10sec when ping can't reach to the object.

And I recomend that you specify the "sorce-ip" because keep back a flap owing to ping reachs the object going through backup.

HTH,
