ip load-sharing [per-destination | per-packet]

Use the ip load-sharing command to configure whether parallel routes in the route table are used to
load-share forwarded packets. If this command is disabled, the route table uses a single “best” route for a
given subnet. If this command is enabled, the route table can use multiple “best” routes and alternate
between them.

Syntax Description

per-destination

Specifies that the route used for forwarding a packet be based on a hash of the
source and destination IP address in the packet.

per-packet

Specifies that each forwarding route lookup rotates through all the parallel “best”
routes. (Parallel routes are defined as routes to the same subnet with the same
metrics that only differ by their next hop address.)

Default Values

By default, ip load-sharing is disabled.

Applicable Platforms

This command applies to the NetVanta 300, 1000R, 2000, 3000, 4000, and 5000 and Total Access 900
