BGP Multipath Load Sharing for eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN Chapter 4 Configuring Multiprotocol Label Switching Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) uses the multipaths to perform load sharing, which can be performed on a per-packet or per-source/destination pair basis. By default, the BGP Multipath Load Sharing for Both eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN feature performs unequal cost load sharing by selecting BGP paths that do not have an equal cost of the Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP). To enable the feature, configure the router with MPLS VPNs that contain virtual routing and forwarding instances (VRFs) that import both eBGP and iBGP paths. You can configure the number of multipaths separately for each VRF. Note The BGP Multipath Load Sharing for Both eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN feature operates within the configuration parameters of the existing outbound routing policy. The BGP Multipath Load Sharing for eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN feature is described in the following topics: • Feature History for BGP Multipath Load Sharing for eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN, page 4-2 • Restrictions for BGP Multipath Load Sharing for eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN, page 4-3 • Prerequisites for BGP Multipath Load Sharing for eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN, page 4-3 • IGP Convergence Acceleration, page 4-3 • Configuring BGP Multipath Load Sharing for eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN, page 4-4 • Configuration Examples for BGP Multipath Load Sharing for eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN, page 4-5 • Monitoring and Maintaining BGP Multipath Load Sharing for eBGP and iBGP, page 4-7 Feature History for BGP Multipath Load Sharing for eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7)XI1 12.2(28)SB 12.2(33)SB 12.2(33)SB3 Description Required PRE This feature was introduced on the Cisco 10000 series router. PRE2 This feature was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(28)SB. PRE2 The IGP convergence acceleration feature was added on PRE3 and PRE4 Cisco 10000 series router. The IGP convergence acceleration feature was updated to PRE3 and PRE4 include support for unequal cost paths on Cisco 10000 series router.

BGP Multipath Load Sharing for eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN

Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) uses the multipaths to perform load sharing, which can be performed

on a per-packet or per-source/destination pair basis. By default, the BGP Multipath Load Sharing for

Both eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN feature performs unequal cost load sharing by selecting BGP

paths that do not have an equal cost of the Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP). To enable the feature,

configure the router with MPLS VPNs that contain virtual routing and forwarding instances (VRFs) that

import both eBGP and iBGP paths. You can configure the number of multipaths separately for each VRF.

Note

The BGP Multipath Load Sharing for Both eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN feature operates within

the configuration parameters of the existing outbound routing policy.

The BGP Multipath Load Sharing for eBGP and iBGP in an MPLS VPN feature is described in the

following topics:

•
