Configuring Resilient Hashing for Default VRF

Describes the process of configuring Resilient Hashing on the SLX devices.

1. Navigate to the Configuration context using the conf term command.
   

   SLX# conf term
   SLX(config)#

2. Use the resilient-hash command to configure.
   

   SLX (config)# resilient-hash ?
   Possible completions:
       ecmp        Resilient hash ECMP
       max-path    Resilient hash max path (8|16|64)
   
   SLX (config)# resilient-hash ecmp ?
   Possible completions:
       enable      Enable resilient hash ECMP
   
   SLX (config)# resilient-hash ecmp enable

3. Configure the max-path value.

   The default max-path value is 8. You can choose to use 8, 16, or 64 paths.

   

   SLX (config)# resilient-hash ?
   Possible completions:
       ecmp        Resilient hash ECMP
       max-path    Resilient hash max path (8|16|64)
   
   SLX (config)# resilient-hash max-path 8
   SLX (config)#

4. Verify the configuration using the show ip route system-summary command.
   

   SLX # show ip route system-summary
