II. Configuring IPX route limit
In IPX, you can configure, in the routing table, the maximum number of the dynamic
routes and equivalent routes to the same destination. These two limit settings are
independent of each other.
When the number of the dynamic routes to the same destination address reaches the
limit, new dynamic routes are dropped directly rather than added into the routing table.
When the new setting is smaller than the old value, the switch, however, does not
delete the excess route entries. These route entries age out automatically.
If the newly configured limit is smaller than the number of current active routes, the
system deactivates the excess active routes. If the newly configured limit is greater
than the number of current active routes, the system activates the existing routes that
are equivalent to them until the limit is reached.
Follow these steps to configure the IPX route limit:
Enter system view
Enable IPX
Configure the maximum
number of dynamic routes
to the same destination
Configure the maximum
number of equivalent
routes to the same
destination
