Hi Guys,
I am still following the active post of 'BGP Balacned' - thanks for it.
Now, I have implemented per packet load balancing, by disabling cef
and route-cache on both the interfaces from R1. Initially too, I had
disabled ip route-cache from the subinterfaces, but it seems the ip
route-cache command actually comes in action only after an application
on a physical interface (and not a sub-interface)
Though this has achieved the desired result, I am not sure how good it
is to disable cef and cache on a very busy router.
Thanks to all for the work arounds.
