Last week there was some discussion about this but I don't think it was ever
resolved. Has anyone thought of a way to load-balance between ibgp and ebgp
learned routes?
TIA, Tim

Subject: BGP Load-balancing betw ibgp and ebgp paths
Hi guys,
I now know how to configure BGP to load-balance between paths learned from
either multiple ebgp peers or from multiple ibgp peers.
maximum-paths # --- for ebgp peers
maximum-paths ibgp # -- for ibgp peers
But, how is load balancing configured when the same route is learned from
both an ibgp and an ebgp peer?
I looked at all the bgp commands available under the bgp process but none
appear to do the trick.
Any ideas?
TIA, Tim
