ip-pool algorithm round-robin

Function

The ip-pool algorithm round-robin command configures the device to use the round-robin algorithm to allocate addresses in the local or remote IPv4 address pools.

The undo ip-pool algorithm round-robin command restores the default mode for allocating addresses in the local or remote IPv4 address pools.

By default, the device allocates addresses in the sequence of the local or remote IPv4 address pools.

This command is supported only on the NetEngine 8000 F1A.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

By default, IPv4 addresses are allocated in the sequence of the address pools. This may cause imbalance in address allocation. To allow the device to allocate addresses from different address pools in turn, run the ip-pool algorithm round-robin command.

Configuration Impact

After the ip-pool algorithm round-robin command is run, the device allocates addresses from different address pools in turn.

Precautions

In VS mode, this command is supported only by the admin VS.

Example

# Configure the device to use the round-robin algorithm to allocate addresses in the remote IPv4 address pools.
