Configuring equal cost multi-path (ECMP) routing for static IP routes
ECMP routing allows multiple entries for routes to the same destination. Each path has the same cost as the other paths, but a different next-hop router. The
ip load-sharing
command specifies the maximum number of equal paths that can be configured. Values range from 2 to 4.
Example of an ECMP set with the same destination but different next-hop routers
This example shows configuration of an ECMP set with two different gateways to the same destination address but through different next-hop routers. For more information, see IPv6 Configuration Guide for your switch.
switch(config)# ip route 127.10.144.21/24 10.10.10.2 metric 12 distance 10 switch(config)# ip route 127.10.144.21/24 10.10.10.3 metric 12 distance 10
