The user can implement this behavior by configuring the switch for tracking as follows:
1. Set the priority for switch 1 to 101.
2. Leave the priority for switch 2 at the default value of 100.
3. On both switches, enable tracking based on ports (ports), interfaces (ifs), or virtual
routers (vr). You can choose any combination of tracking parameters, based on your net-
work configuration.
NOTEThere is no shortcut to setting tracking parameters. The goals must first be set and the
outcomes of various configurations and scenarios analyzed to find settings that meet the goals.
