Hi.
I've recently read about ECMP in quagga-users@ mailing list and seems
like quagga can inject equal-cost routes into the kernel (at least in
Linux).
So I wanna know if the same is possible under FreeBSD, because I'm
constructing a VPN with lots of failover channels and a dynamic routing,
and it would be really great to use these failover links for balancing.
The problem is that this topic lacks the documentation like totally.
From the commit comments I understand that with RADIX_MPATH I can use
more than one route towards the destination, but I really cannot find
anywhere the answer to the question 'will some form of balancing,
per-flow or per-packet take place'.
Am I missing some man ?
Does anyone know this for sure ?
Thanks.
Eugene.
