27.2.6 Configuring Multipathing

Points to note

By adjusting cost values, you can establish an equal-cost multipath to a destination regardless of the number of routers through which the route passes.

Figure 27-5: Configuration of multipathing

This subsection provides an example of establishing an equal-cost multipath on Switch A.

Command examples

1. (config)# interface vlan 2

   (config-if)# ipv6 ospf 1 area 0

   (config-if)# exit

2. (config)# interface vlan 1

   (config-if)# ipv6 ospf 1 area 0

   (config-if)# ipv6 ospf cost 2

   Sets the cost value of VLAN 1 to 2. This gives routes through VLAN 1 the same cost as routes through VLAN 2.
