Enhanced Object tracking for 16.9.x

Hello 

I am trying to configure object tracking inside an eem script to track an interface going down. However, for some reason, in 16.9.x, it is not giving me the option "track" under the eem applet. I remember this was available in 3.x.x versions. 

 

Please find the below logs

======

 

Switch#show ver

I am trying to reach the below config (from 3.x.x version)

Kindly advice what I am missing here

Hi,

 

   I remember running into this as well, so it seems this feature is not available for switches for some reason. You cans till achieve the same thing by matching on the syslog message you get when the tracked object goes down or up.

True. Thats what I have done for now.
