[j-nsp] MPLS Question

[Filippo Cugini]

Hi,
try this:

policy-options policy-statement lb
then {
    load-balance per-packet;
}

then you export the policy
set routing-options forwarding-table export lb
and this is how load-balance is enabled.

This will add both routes in the forwarding table and real fast reroute will 
be activated.
This means few milliseconds of recovery time rather than hundreds of ms (and 
no ping typically lost)

Br,
  Filippo
