Router Setup
56.1 Router Setup Overview
The Switch learns the next-hops using ARP and determines routing paths for a destination. The Switch
supports Equal-Cost MultiPath (ECMP) to forward packets destined to the same device (A for example)
through different routing paths (1, 2 and 3) of equal path cost. This allows you to balance or share traffic
loads between multiple routing paths when the Switch is connected to more than one next-hop. ECMP
works with static routes or a routing protocol, such as OSPF. With ECMP, packets are routed through the
paths of equal cost according to the hash algorithm output.
