[j-nsp] J2300 T1 Load balancing

[Phil Bedard]

I don't know that much about the J2300 packet engines, but on the IP2  
in the other platforms, the "load-balance per-packet" is a bit of a  
misnomer.  With that configured, it will still forward packets to an  
egress interface based on L3/L4 hashing, as opposed to actually doing  
per-packet load balancing.  The configuration looks fine to me, so  
that's probably the case with the J2300 as well.
