Basic IP parameters and defaults
TABLE 41
IP global parameters (Continued)
Parameter Description
IP load sharing A Brocade feature that enables the router to balance traffic to a
specific destination across multiple equal-cost paths.
Load sharing is based on a combination of destination MAC
address, source MAC address, destination IP address, source IP
address, and IP protocol.
NOTE: Load sharing is sometimes called Equal Cost Multi Path
Maximum IP load The maximum number of equal-cost paths across which the
sharing paths device is allowed to distribute traffic.
Origination of default You can enable a router to originate default routes for the
routes following route exchange protocols, on an individual protocol
basis:
•
RIP
•
OSPF
•
BGP4
Default network The router uses the default network route if the IP route table
route does not contain a route to the destination and also does not
contain an explicit default route (0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 or 0.0.0.0/0).
Static route An IP route you place in the IP route table.
Source interface The IP address the router uses as the source address for Telnet,
RADIUS, or TACACS/TACACS+ packets originated by the router.
The router can select the source address based on either of the
following:
•
The lowest-numbered IP address on the interface the packet
is sent on.
•
The lowest-numbered IP address on a specific interface. The
address is used as the source for all packets of the specified
type regardless of interface the packet is sent on.
