• Configure a bandwidth reference value for the interface. OSPF computes the cost with this formula:
Interface OSPF cost = Bandwidth reference value (100 Mbps)/Interface bandwidth (Mbps). If the
calculated cost is greater than 65,535, the value of 65,535 is used. If the calculated cost is less
than 1, the value of 1 is used. If no cost or bandwidth reference value is configured for an interface,
OSPF computes the interface cost based on the interface bandwidth and default bandwidth
reference value.
To configure an OSPF cost for an interface:
Ste
p
Command
Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2. Enter interface view.
interface interface-type
interface-number
N/A
3. Configure an OSPF cost
for the interface.
ospf cost value
Optional.
The default cost depends on the interface
type. The default cost for a loopback
interface is 0.
To configure a bandwidth reference value:

2. Enter OSPF view.

3. Configure a bandwidth
reference value.
bandwidth-reference value
Optional.
The value defaults to 100
Mbps.
Configuring the maximum number of ECMP routes
Perform this task to implement load sharing over ECMP routes.
To configure the maximum number of ECMP routes:
Ste

Command
Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2. Enter OSPF view.
ospf [ process-id | router-id router-id |
vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ] *
N/A
3. Configure the maximum
number of ECMP routes.
maximum load-balancing maximum
Optional.
By default, the
maximum number of
ECMP routes is 8.
