IPv6 BGP Configuration Commands
balance (IPv6 address family view)
Syntax
balance number
undo balance
View
IPv6 address family view
Default Level
2: System level
Parameters
number: Number of BGP routes participating in load balancing. Its value is in the range 1 to 4. When it is
set to 1, load balancing is disabled.
Description
Use the balance command to configure the number of routes participating in IPv6 BGP load balancing.
Use the undo balance command to restore the default.
The feature is not available by default.
Unlike IGP, BGP has no explicit metric for making load balancing decision. Instead, it implements load
balancing by defining its routing rule.
Related commands: display bgp ipv6 routing-table.

# Set the number of routes participating in IPv6 BGP load balancing to 2.
<Sysname> system-view
