maximum-paths
Congures the maximum number of equal-cost paths for load sharing.
Syntax maximum-paths [ebgp number | ibgp number] maxpaths
Parameters
• ebgp—Enable multipath support for external BGP routes.
• ibgp—Enable multipath support for internal BGP routes.
• number—Enter the number of parallel paths, from 1 to 64.
Default 64 paths
Command Mode ROUTER-BGP
Usage Information Dell EMC recommends not using multipath and add path simultaneously in a route reector. To recompute the best
path, use the clear ip bgp * command. The no version of this command resets the value to the default

maximum-prex
Congures the maximum number of prexes allowed from a peer.
