I am using the 'route:' statement for dependencies currently.
In my environment, I have dual everything to the wiring closet, or dual homed servers.
Is there a way to have a device watch for BOTH paths back?
In other words, if both connections fail then the SERVER will turn YELLOW and show the unreachable cause.
3 Examples:
I can watch for a failure of "wiring-closet-switch" but cannot go any farther back
CISCO-6500A à 1 gig fiber connectionà wiring-closet-switch à SERVER
CISCO-6500B à 1 gig fiber connection ---^
CISCO-6500A à top-of-rack-switch à SERVER
CISCO-6500B ----^
CISCO-6500A à SERVER
CISCO-6500B ----^
Would this work?
SERVER # route:top-of-rack-switch,CISCO-6500A,CISCO-6500B conn ...
