If IP route sharing is disabled, the first best route is installed in the hardware table, if multiple best routes are available. Hence the compression algorithm considers the first best route for ECMP cases. As shown in the following table, when IP route sharing is disabled, all routes are compressed, except the first one in this case.
| Prefix | Gateways | Compressed? |
|---|---|---|
| 20.0.0.0/8 | Gw1: 30.1.10.1, Gw2: 50.1.10.1 | NO |
| 20.1.10.0/24 | Gw1: 30.1.10.1 | YES |
