Hi Robert,

You are giving more information to all of the nodes so that they can make 
better choices.  Being able to see the four interfaces on NPU A and the four 
interfaces on NPU B allows you to drive traffic one way or the other, rather 
than splitting across both.

Then you get the same metric, and you end up using the most-fill tiebreaker.  
If the bandwidths are exactly equal (extremely unlikely), then it doesn’t 
matter which way you go.  Whatever is selected, the bandwidths will no longer 
be equal.

Cheers,
Tony
