Configuring VF tracking

You can configure VF tracking in both standard mode and load balancing mode, but the function takes effect only in load balancing mode.

In load balancing mode, you can configure the VFs in a VRRP group to monitor a track entry. When the state of the track entry transits to Negative, the weights of all VFs in the VRRP group on the router decrease by a specific value. When the state of the track entry transits to Positive or Notready, the original weights of the VFs restore.
