how to configer failover link Extreme X460

[PARTHIBAN_CHINN]

Hi Mohammad,
You are trying to configure floating static route incase if one nexthop fails the other must take over.Is this right?
You can achieve this using Flow redirect feature.
Example:

create flow-redirect gilly------------------this is just a name
configure flow-redirect flow_redirect_name add nexthop 192.168.92.1 priority 100
configure flow-redirect flow_redirect_name add nexthop 192.168.200.1 priority 200

if match all {
destination-address 192.168.37.0/24 ;
} then {
permit ;
redirect-name gilly
}
}
Note:higher priority next hop will take precedence

regards,

configure iproute add 192.168.50.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.92.1
configure iproute add 192.168.50.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.200.1 200
configure iproute add 192.168.37.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.200.1 200

Hi, do you mean Software Redundant Port (SRP)?

config ports redundant {link [on | off]}

The primary and secondary port are local to the switch (or stack), they have the same configuration and no other L2 protocols on them (STP...). The primary port is the active one, the secondary is the backup. The backup comes up only if the primary fails. Link off (default) means the secondary port is not ready (led off) and so failover is a bit longer, while with link on, it's sub-second.

You can also control the behavior if the primary port comes back up, with smart redundancy.
