Ip Ecmp-Group - Dell S4810 Reference Manual

FTOS provides a CLI-based solution for modifying the hash seed to ensure that on
each configured system, the ECMP selection is same. When configured, the same
seed is set for ECMP, LAG, and NH, and is used for incoming traffic only.

ip ecmp-group

Enable and specify the maximum number of ecmp that the L3 CAM hold for a route, By default, when
maximum paths are not configured, the CAM can hold a maximum of 16 ecmp per route.

Usage You must save the new ECMP settings to the startup-config (write-mem) then
Information
reload the system for the new settings to take effect.
Equal Cost Multi-Path (ECMP)
NOTE: While the seed is stored separately on each port-pipe, the same seed is
used across all CAMs.
You cannot separate LAG and ECMP but you can use different algorithms
across the chassis with the same seed. If LAG member ports span multiple
port-pipes and line cards, set the seed to the same value on each port-pipe to
achieve deterministic behavior.
If the hash algorithm configuration is removed, the hash seed does not go to
the original factory default setting.
Specify the maximum number of ECMP for a route. The
range is 2 to 64.
Use the keywords path-fallback to enable this feature. If
you enable the feature, re-enter this keyword to disable the
feature.
