[FROG] VRRP Object Tracking / Routes dependent on VRRP state

[Quentin Young]

Hi,

Unfortunately, there is no way I know of to do this at present. FRR supports calling arbitrary Lua scripts at predetermined points in protocol logic, and introducing such a point into vrrpd at an appropriate spot would allow a user script to implement object tracking. Indeed that was one of the motivating use cases for the Lua feature. However, the right combination of interested parties and programmers to make it happen ultimately never occurred.

In short, the necessary components are in place, but the wiring and 20% needs to be done. It would be a fantastic summer project for someone interested in contributing to vrrpd.
