equal cost multipath at which layer?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all!  I have a few questions about linux's ECMP feature.  Any help is 
greatly appreciated!

How does equal cost multipath in linux work?  Does it round robin each packet 
as they come in? 

Can it work at layer 4 and keep all packets belonging to one session 
following one route? Can the more advanced routing tools like 'netfilter' or 
'ip' attain this effect on linux?

Do routing daemons on linux install multiple default routes?  Can they?

Thanks!
