Configure the maximum

number of ECMP routes.

maximum load-balancing number

By default, the maximum number of
RIPng ECMP routes equals the

maximum number of ECMP routes

supported by the system.
Use the max-ecmp-num command
to configure the maximum number

of ECMP routes supported by the

system. For more information

Configuring RIPng GR

GR ensures forwarding continuity when a routing protocol restarts or an active/standby switchover

occurs.
Two routers are required to complete a GR process. The following are router roles in a GR process:

GR restarter—Graceful restarting router. It must have GR capability.

GR helper—A neighbor of the GR restarter. It helps the GR restarter to complete the GR process.

After RIPng restarts on a router, the router must learn RIPng routes again and updates its FIB table, which
causes network disconnections and route reconvergence.
With the GR feature, the restarting router (known as the GR restarter) can notify the event to its GR

capable neighbors. GR capable neighbors (known as GR helpers) maintain their adjacencies with the

router within a configurable GR interval. During this process, the FIB table of the router does not change.
After the restart, the router contacts its neighbors to retrieve its FIB.
By default, a RIPng-enabled device acts as the GR helper. Perform this task on the GR restarter.
