delay c e s Configure the time delay used before communicating a change in the status of a tracked object to clients. Syntax delay {[up seconds] [down seconds]} To return to the default setting, enter no delay. Parameters seconds Enter the number of seconds the object tracker waits before sending a notification about the change in the UP and/or DOWN state of a tracked object to clients. Range: 0 to 180 Default: 0 seconds. Defaults 0 seconds Command Modes OBJECT TRACKING (conf_track_object-id) Command History Related Commands Version 8.4.1.0 Introduced track interface ip routing track interface line-protocol track ip route metric threshold track ip route reachability Configure object tracking on the routing status of an IPv4 Layer 3 interface. Configure object tracking on the line-protocol state of a Layer 2 interface. Configure object tracking on the threshold of an IPv4 route metric. Configure object tracking on the reachability of an IPv4 route. Usage Information You can configure an UP and/or DOWN timer for each tracked object to set the time delay before a change in the state of a tracked object is communicated to clients. The configured time delay starts when the state changes from UP to DOWN or vice-versa. If the state of an object changes back to its former UP/DOWN state before the timer expires, the timer is cancelled and the client is not notified. For example, if the DOWN timer is running when an interface goes down and comes back up, the DOWN timer is cancelled and the client is not notified of the event. If the timer expires and an object's state has changed, a notification is sent to the client. If no delay is configured, a notification is sent immediately as soon as a change in the state of a tracked object is detected. The time delay in communicating a state change is specified in seconds.
