Sage,

Let me ask a question you mention the two other routers(the same AS)
are they ebgp multihop sourcing from a loopback or they have 2
different neighbor. Max-path is per neighbor. not per AS# Give me more
infor on your setup

thanks,

Subject: BGP - Multipath/Loadbalancing (maximu-paths x)

Dear all,

According to CCO/Halabi, max-paths xxx works only when
receiving routes from a SINGULAR AS.

This is my problem:

When I configure "max-paths" on a router that is
directly connected to another router (one router to
one). The loadbalancing works fine - the output of the
show ip route shows both the routes.

Problem: when I connect one router to two other
routers (the two other routers are in the SAME AS) I
do not see the loadbalancing work - ie the show ip
route only shows one route.

Q) Any ideas?

I don't want to go into config's right now, it could
be something simple...

rgds,
Sage
