2.3.3 Configuring the Percentage Thresholds for Load Balancing

A percentage of traffic can be set for a standby interface so that the standby interface transmits
network traffic.
Context
Do as follows on the router that needs to be configured with the load balancing interface backup:
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2 Run:
interface
The active interface view is displayed.
Step 3 Run:
standby threshold
The percentage threshold for load balancing is set.
By default, the system does not support the load-balancing mode, that is, no threshold percentage
is configured.
When the flow of the active interface reaches the pre-defined upper limit (enable-threshold),
the router automatically enables an available standby interface with the highest priority. This
standby interface undertakes the service transmission with the active interface.
When the flow of the active interface is less than the pre-defined lower limit (disable-
threshold), the router disables a standby interface with the lowest priority that transmits services
in load balancing mode.
