undo balance
View
BGP view
Parameter
num: Number of the BGP routes participating in load balancing. It is in the range 1 to 8.
When it is set to 1, load balancing is disabled.
Description
Use the balance command to configure the number of routes participating in BGP load
balancing.
Use the undo balance command to restore the default, that is, 1. In this case, load
balancing is disabled.
Different from IGP, BGP is just a single-purpose routing protocol and therefore has no
explicit metric for making load balancing decision. Instead, it implements load
balancing by changing its routing rule.
Related command: display ip routing-table.

# Set the number of routes participating in BGP load balancing to 2.
[3Com ] bgp 100
[3Com -bgp] balance 2
