Notes:
• Only default route devices can participate in load balancing.
• DSCP-based policy routing takes precedence over load balancing. If
most of the traffic falls under the DSCP-based policy routing rules, it is
then forwarded accordingly, regardless of the load balancing. Load
balancing, in this case, is by best-effort load balancing, and balances the
remaining traffic not directed by the DSCP-based policy routing rules.
