Example: Weighted ECMP Traffic Distribution on One-Hop IS-IS Neighbors
This example shows how to configure weighted equal cost multipath (ECMP) routing for distributing traffic to IS-IS neighbors that are one hop away to ensure optimal load balancing. Weighted ECMP routing distributes traffic unequally over multiple paths for better load balancing. However, weighted ECMP routing is more efficient than equal distribution of traffic during per-packet load balancing.
Requirements
This example uses the following hardware and software components:
Two MX Series routers
Junos OS Release 15.1F4 or later
Before you configure weighted ECMP in an IS-IS network, make sure you :
Configure IP addresses on the device interfaces.
Configure IS-IS.
Configure load balancing
Configure a per-packet load balancing policy.
Overview
Beginning with Junos OS Release 15.1F4, you can configure the IS-IS protocol to get the logical interface bandwidth information associated with the gateways of equal-cost multipath (ECMP) next hop. During per-packet load balancing, traffic distribution is based on the available bandwidth to facilitate optimal bandwidth usage for incoming traffic on an ECMP path of one hop distance. The Packet Forwarding Engine does not distribute the traffic equally, but considers the balance values and distributes the traffic according to the bandwidth availability. However, this feature is not available for ECMP paths that are more than one hop away.
Topology
In Figure 1, three aggregated Ethernet bundles ae0, ae1, and ae2 with four links each, are configured between Router R0 and Router R1. The Packet Forwarding Engine distributes traffic unequally between the three Ethernet bundles when one of the links goes down, depending on the available bandwidth.

Note:For logical interfaces, configure interface bandwidth to distribute traffic across equal-cost multipaths based on the underlying operational interface bandwidth. When you configure multiple logical interfaces on a single interface, configure appropriate logical bandwidth for each logical interface to see the desired traffic distribution over the logical interfaces.
Configure IP addresses on the interfaces with either IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, as per your network requirements.

Meaning
IS-IS distributes traffic equally when the three aggregated Ethernet bundles have the same bandwidth available.
Verifying Unequal Traffic Distribution Over Available Bandwidth
Purpose
To verify that IS-IS distributes traffic unevenly when one of the aggregated link is down during per-packet load balancing depending on the available bandwidth.
Action
Disable one of the links on the ae0 bundle so that the
available bandwidth is 3g on ae0 and 4g on ae1and ae2. From operational
mode, enter the show route 198.0.0.1 extensive
command.

Meaning
IS-IS infers that the ae0 bundle has only 3g of bandwidth available. Therefore, modifies per-packet load balancing according to the available bandwidth. As per the output, only 27 percent of the bandwidth is available on ae0 because one of the aggregated Ethernet links is down. Thus IS-IS distributes traffic unequally depending on the available bandwidth.
Verifying Unequal Traffic Distribution onLogical Interfaces
Purpose
To verify that IS-IS distributes traffic unevenly on logical interfaces based on the configured logical bandwidth.
