multicast p2mp root load-balance spmsi disable

Function

The multicast p2mp root load-balance spmsi disable command disables trunk load balancing for an S-PMSI tunnel on the root node.

The undo multicast p2mp root load-balance spmsi disable command restores the default configuration.

By default, trunk load balancing for an S-PMSI tunnel is enabled on the root node.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

If multiple multicast flows are transmitted over the same P2MP tunnel and the tunnel's outbound interface is a Trunk interface, the flows are not balanced among the member interfaces of the trunk interface by default. If an S-PMSI tunnel exists, run the multicast p2mp root load-balance spmsi disable command to disable trunk load balancing for the S-PMSI tunnel. This configuration does not affect trunk load balancing for an I-PMSI tunnel and helps save multicast resources.

This command takes effect only to S-PMSI tunnels on the root node.

Prerequisites

Multicast load balancing for a Trunk interface has been enabled using the multicast p2mp force-loadbalance enable (in the system view) or multicast p2mp root load-balance enable (in the interface view) command.

Configuration Impact

After the multicast p2mp root load-balance spmsi disable or undo multicast p2mp root load-balance spmsi disable command is run on a device, packet loss lasts for a short time over the P2MP tunnel on the device.

Precautions

This command applies to P2MP tunnels, including mLDP LSPs and P2MP TE tunnels. LDP LSPs and P2P TE tunnels are not affected by this command.

Example

# Enable multicast trunk load balancing for a P2MP tunnel in the trunk view of the root node, and disable trunk load balancing for the S-PMSI tunnel.
