Abstract:
In one embodiment, a node identifies a plurality of equal cost best paths to a destination, the best paths having one or more associated links. The node receives dynamic link utilization information for the associated links, and determines an amount of traffic to the destination to forward over each of the equal cost best paths, the amount being dynamically dependent upon the dynamic link utilization of the associated links for each equal cost best path.
