Rakesh,

In PBR, the next-hop has to be directly connected. When you specify multiple
next-hops, secondary will be used when the primary is down. However this is
checked on an interface basis, it will not check if the next-hop IP address
is active or not.

You can also use cdp (remote has to be cdp capable) to check the
availability of the next-hop (use "ip next-hop verify-availability" command)

Hi ,

In PBR , if we configure " ip next-hop x.x.x.x " in the route-map , then
incase the primary link fails , will it take secondary route to the next-hop
specified.
