IP load sharing
AFoundry feature that enables the router to balance
traffic to a specific destination across multiple equal-
cost paths.
Load sharing uses a simple round-robin mechanism
and is based on destination address.
Note
: Load sharing is sometimes called Equal Cost
Multi Path (ECMP).
Enabled

Maximum IP
load sharing
paths
The maximum number of equal-cost paths across
which the Layer 3 Switch is allowed to distribute
traffic.

Origination of
default routes
You can enable a router to originate default routes for
the following route exchange protocols, on an
individual protocol basis:
•
RIP
•
OSPF
•

Default network
route
The router uses the default network route if the IP
route table does not contain a route to the destination
and also does not contain an explicit default route
(0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 or 0.0.0.0/0).
None configured

Static route
An IP route you place in the IP route table.
No entries

Source interface
The IP address the router uses as the source address
for Telnet, RADIUS, or TACACS/ packets
originated by the router. The router can select the
source address based on either of the following:
•
The lowest-numbered IP address on the interface
the packet is sent on.
•
The lowest-numbered IP address on a specific
interface. The address is used as the source for
all packets of the specified type regardless of
interface the packet is sent on.
The lowest-numbered
IP address on the
interface the packet is
sent on.
