Hi Bryan,

Briljant!

R2#sh ip cef 150.100.100.5 detail
150.100.100.5/32, version 64, epoch 0, connected, cached adjacency
150.100.100.5
0 packets, 0 bytes
  via 150.100.100.5, Serial2/0.25, 0 dependencies
    next hop 150.100.100.5, Serial2/0.25
    valid cached adjacency

R2#sh ip cef 150.100.100.6 detail
150.100.100.6/32, version 32, epoch 0, cached adjacency 150.100.100.6
0 packets, 0 bytes
  via 150.100.100.6, Serial2/0.26, 0 dependencies
    next hop 150.100.100.6, Serial2/0.26
    valid cached adjacency

So the CEF table is not only build by using the only RIB, but also it
takes details from the FR config into account.

To continue the experiment:

R2#ping 150.100.100.5

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 150.100.100.5, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 56/56/60 ms
R2#ping 150.100.100.6

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 150.100.100.6, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 56/57/60 ms
R2#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
R2(config)#no ip cef
R2(config)#end
R2#ping 150.100.100.5
*Mar  2 20:09:25.987: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console
R2#ping 150.100.100.5

Success rate is 40 percent (2/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 56/56/56 ms
R2#ping 150.100.100.6

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 150.100.100.6, timeout is 2 seconds:

R2#

Without CEF, the routing table is consulted  for next hop determination,
and it has two identical routes for 150.100.100.0/24, so with per packet
load balancing; half of the pings is lost!

Regards,

Frank
