[c-nsp] MPLS TE Load Balancing

[omar parihuana]

Hi Group,

I'm wondering about a strange behaviour about MPLS TE on ASR9K

I have two MPLS TE tunnels (with autoroute announce):

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:9K6-413#show route 10.100.100.7
Thu Mar 29 23:09:49.818 UTC

Routing entry for 10.100.100.7/32
  Known via "isis BACKBONE", distance 115, metric 140, type level-2
  Installed Mar 29 22:58:29.392 for 00:11:20
  Routing Descriptor Blocks
    10.100.100.2, from 10.100.100.7, via tunnel-te502
      Route metric is 140
    10.100.100.3, from 10.100.100.7, via tunnel-te501
      Route metric is 140
  No advertising protos.
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:9K6-413#

In accordance to RIB output I was hopping that traffic to 10.100.100.7 be
balanced between both tunnels... however I only see traffic over the first
tunnel...

What's happening? why not load balancing ? do i need a additional conf on
ASR9K in order to accomplish MPLS TE load balancing?


Thank you for your answer...

Rgds.
