Parameters
Defaults
Ifpingerisnotspecified,noneisconfigured.

Usage
Whenmorethanonenexthopisconfigured(usingthesetnexthopcommandasdescribedin“set
nexthop”onpage 8‐45)theloadpolicyspecifieschoosingonenexthopfromamongthesequence
ofnexthopsinthemapmatchingthecurrentpacket.Anexthopisconsidered
availablebydefault
unlessapingertaskisrunningandhasflaggeditasunavailable.
The“no”formofthiscommandresetsthenexthopbehaviortofirst‐available.
Example
