I'm trying to get the below script running.

What for...... I have 2 GRE Tunnels on Nexus 7710's connected to some 3900 routers with GRE. Nexus do not support keepalives for some reason.

I have some static mroute's pointing to 2 tunnels Primary and backup

In the event of the Primary GRE tunnel failing I want to remove the mroute for the Primary as below. Basically a failover mechanism.

I just wondering if my action cli script is correct. I can see "Multicast" in the syslog (SLA) when I shut down the Primary Tunnel but my EEM does not seem to work. I take it pinging the 3900 Tunnel end of the tunnel from the 7710 loopback and adding the route in every 5 seconds shouldn't be a problem as the route is already there!

Any help or other methods for this Tunnel failover would be great! We are migrating from 6500's where keepalives are supported and something like EEM is a not a requirement. I still do not understand why Nexus doesn't support keepalives!!!
