[j-nsp] JNCIP question: do I have to config forwarding table policy to actually load balance?

[Harry Reynolds]

Yes. The CP LB is done via the protocols, but backed up via the pfe and its lb policy.

Hi everyone,

in Harry's JNCIP book, there're several places where load balancing is required, such as in ospf and bgp. besides configuring protocols to have multiple next-hop show up in routing table, do I have to configure forwarding-table export policy like this to actually install multiple next-hop in forwarding table?

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

routing-options {
    forwarding-table {
        export load-balance-per-flow;
    }
}

thanks in advance for anyone to help me out on this.
