Cisco Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(27)SBC

To set a threshold metric other than the default value, use the threshold metric command in tracking 
configuration mode. To disable the threshold metric, use the no form of this command.

threshold metric {up number [down number] | down number [up number]}

no threshold metric 

No threshold is configured.

Tracking configuration

This command is available only to IP-route threshold metric objects tracked by the track ip route metric 
threshold global configuration command.

The default up and down threshold values are 254 and 255, respectively. With these values, IP-route 
threshold tracking gives the same result as IP-route reachability tracking.

In the following example, the tracking process is tracking the IP-route threshold metric. The metric 
default value is changed to 16 for the up threshold and to 20 for the down threshold.

track 1 ip route 10.22.0.0/16 metric threshold

threshold metric up 16 down 20 

delay down 20

Specifies the up threshold. The state is up if the scaled metric for that route 
is less than or equal to the up threshold. The default up threshold is 254.

Specifies the down threshold. The state is down if the scaled metric for that 
route is greater than or equal to the down threshold. The default down 
threshold is 255.

Threshold value. The range is from 0 to 255.
