Configuring BFD for the VRRP master to monitor the uplink
Network requirements
As shown in
, Router A and Router B belong to VRRP group 1, whose virtual IP address is
192.168.0.10.
The default gateway of the hosts in the LAN is 192.168.0.10.
When Router A works correctly, hosts in the LAN access the external network through Router A. When
Router A detects that the uplink is down through BFD, it decreases its priority so that Router B can preempt
as the master, ensuring that the hosts in the LAN can access the external network through Router B.

Configuration procedure
1.
Configure BFD on Router A:
# Configure the source address of BFD echo packets as 10.10.10.10.
[RouterA] bfd echo-source-ip 10.10.10.10
2.
Create the track entry to associate with the BFD session on Router A:
# Create track entry 1 for the BFD session on Router A to check whether the uplink device with the
IP address 1.1.1.2 is reachable.
[RouterA] track 1 bfd echo interface ethernet 1/1 remote ip 1.1.1.2 local ip 1.1.1.1
3.
Configure VRRP on Router A:
# Create VRRP group 1, and configure the virtual IP address of the group as 192.168.0.10.
Configure the priority of Router A in VRRP group 1 as 110, and configure VRRP group 1 to monitor
