Service Manual
NOTE: While the seed is stored separately on each port-pipe, the same seed is used across all
CAMs.
You cannot separate LAG and ECMP but you can use dierent algorithms across the chassis with the
same seed. If LAG member ports span multiple port-pipes and line cards, set the seed to the same
value on each port-pipe to achieve deterministic behavior.
If the hash algorithm conguration is removed, the hash seed does not go to the original factory default
setting.
ip ecmp-group
Enable and specify the maximum number of ecmp that the L3 CAM hold for a route, By default, when maximum paths are not
congured, the CAM can hold a maximum of 16 ecmp per route.
Syntax
ip ecmp-group {maximum-paths | {number} {path-fallback}
To negate a command, use the no ip ecmp-group maximum-paths {number} command.
Parameters
maximum-paths Specify the maximum number of ECMP for a route. The range is 2 to 64.
path-fallback Use the keywords path-fallback to enable this feature. If you enable the
feature, re-enter this keyword to disable the feature.
