[c-nsp] Problem in MultiLink

[Sharath K]

Hi,

 

Here is reads as below Please suggest if there are any changes that needs to
be done. 

Btw we are already  using IP Load-sharing Per-packet. But heard that there
are packet loss issues when using load-sharing. Please give me your comments
on this as well.

 

Regards

 

Sharath

post your config and we'll see..

Anyway, I'd recommend to use CEF & "ip load-sharing per-packet" instead of
mppp unless you have a good reason for multilink..
