Syntax

session-ctx session-ctx-name local-addr IPv4/IPv6_address remote-addr IPv4/IPv6_address

session-ctx-name

Specify the name of the context containing the local interfaces over which the protocol monitoring occurs. This must be the same context in which the Sx is configured.

local-addr IPv4/IPv6_address

Specify the IPv4 or IPv6 address corresponding to the local interface in the current context.

remote-addr IPv4/IPv6_address

Specify the IPv4 or IPv6 address corresponding to the remote peer with which the protocol monitoring occurs.

If the monitor group is configured on the CP, then the remote address is that of the peer UP.

If the monitor group is configured on the UP, then the remote address is that of the peer CP.

Usage Guidelines

Creates a monitoring relationship within the group for use with CUPS features such as N+2 UP Recovery. Repeat this command to configure multiple relationships.

Configure the monitor protocol groups on both the CP and UP and within the same context as the CUPS Sx interface.

Example

The following command configures a monitoring relationship with UP whose address is 192.168.0.50 and with a local IP address of 192.168.0.4 in a context called ingress_ctx : 

session-ctx ingress_ctx local-addr 192.168.0.4 remote-addr 192.168.0.50
