Activating or deactivating static routes on the basis of RPM test results

You can use RPM probes to detect link status, and change the preferred-route state on the basis of the probe results. Tracked routes can be IPv4 or IPv6, and support a single IPv4 or IPv6 next hop. For example, RPM probes can be sent to an IP address to determine if the link is up, and if so, take the action of installing a static route in the route table . RPM-tracked routes are installed with preference 1 and thus are preferred over any existing static routes for the same prefix.
