NOTE
The MIB objects presented in this chapter are supported on the FastIron devices that support IPv6.
ECMP MIB objects
The SNMP Equal-Cost Multi-Path (ECMP) MIB object is used to configure ECMP for IPv6 using
SNMP. ECMP enables the router to balance traffic to a specific destination across multiple
equal-cost paths.
To use these objects, perform the following steps.
1. Enable ECMP for RIP using the snRtIpRipEcmpEnable MIB object.
IP load sharing is enabled by default. However, ECMP must be enabled for RIP IP load sharing.
2. Enable IPv6 load sharing using the fdryIpv6LoadShare MIB object.
IPv6 load sharing is enabled by default. If it needs to be enabled, set fdryIpv6LoadShare to 1.
3. Configure the maximum number of load sharing paths for IPv6 using the
fdryIpv6LoadShareNumOfPaths MIB object.
