RE: "fuzzy" HSRP failover

Just a thought...

Maybe you can use PPP link quality to monitor your drops and bring down the
interface when there are too many. For example:

interface ATM2/0.1 point-to-point
 atm pvc 1 0 50 aal5ciscoppp Virtual-Template1
!
interface Virtual-Template1
 ip address 10.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
 ppp quality 50
!

I set link quality to 50%. AKA when 50% of the packets get dropped the
interface goes down. Then, do a track on the Virtual-Template1 interface.
For example:

interface Ethernet0/0
 ip address 172.16.1.2 255.255.255.0
 half-duplex
 standby 1 ip 172.16.1.1
 standby 1 preempt
 standby 1 track Vt1 90

Maybe this will work??? Any thoughts out there?

What do you mean by degraded performance?

This is off-topic, but I am interested in feedback.

Here's the situation: I have two DS3 lines between two sites with routers
at each end configured using HSRP. This works fine. When the main DS3 goes
down, failover works. Here's the question: How can I cause a failover if
there is degraded performance on the primary line, but not a complete
failure?

thank!
