When BGP has been configured for the Secure Connect network, there is an additional configuration step required for setting up the wan0 tracker. The tracker pings a given address through the wan0 interface and adds or removes a static route for subnet resources based on whether the ping succeeds.
Complete the following steps to set up the wan0 tracker:
Log into NetCloud Manager.
Select in the left-side navigation panel.
Select the NCX Service Gateway from the Routers table.
Select the menu, and then select .
Note
Remote Connect must be enabled for the account through the Settings (
) icon.
Select .
Enter the configure bgp_tracker command.
Enter n when prompted to restore the configured settings to defaults.
Enter y when prompted to change the BGP tracker address.
Enter the IPv4 address.
The address is defaulted to the IP address of the wan0 NetCloud Exchange Service Gateway if using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
Enter y when prompted to change the BGP tracker's ping request rate (Period) and wait time for reply (Timeout).
Enter the time between pings (Period) in milliseconds.
Enter how long a ping should wait for a reply (Timeout) in milliseconds.
Enter y when prompted to change the BGP tracker's Total and Threshold.
Enter the total number of pings.
Enter the threshold number.
Enter the cat config/data_path/config/tracker command to verify the newly configured BGP tracker values.
Enter the get status/data_path/state/tracker/ command to verify the operational state of the BGP tracker.
