Hi Vanias,
One can tell if a path is being used by the counters. From this little snippet:
forwarding: unicast-ip4-chain
[@0]: dpo-load-balance: [proto:ip4 index:26 buckets:16 uRPF:38
to:[366212091:16845756186]]
[0] [@12]: dpo-load-balance: [proto:ip4 index:25 buckets:1 uRPF:28 to:[0:0]
via:[1570111449:72225126654]]
[0] [@5]: ipv4 via 10.10.3.2 memif0/0: mtu:9000 next:3
02fef98b60f802fe107edd530800
[1] [@12]: dpo-load-balance: [proto:ip4 index:25 buckets:1 uRPF:28 to:[0:0]
via:[1570111449:72225126654]]
[0] [@5]: ipv4 via 10.10.3.2 memif0/0: mtu:9000 next:3
02fef98b60f802fe107edd530800
I can see that this prefix was matched by 366212091 packets. 1570111449 went
via 10.10.3.2.
Capture this a few times and you’ll see how the packets are forwarded. You can
turn on adjacency counters if you want that granularity (‘adj counters enable’)
But as I said before, it’s a flow based hash, so if you only have one flow,
you’ll only see counts against one peer. You need many flows to get the load
distribution 1:1:1. In fact the best you’ll get is 6:5:5 (since there are 16
buckets for the 3 choices).

Subject: Re: [vpp-dev] VPP ip route add multiple paths
Hello Neale,
Thanks for the quick answer. What i meant by not working is that traffic is not
going through them once all paths are up. Interfaces are up and running though
I have checked them.
Output with one path:

Hello Anonymous,
In order to debug IP forwarding issues I’m going to need more info. Please
collect:
‘sh ip fib <YOUR_PREFIX>’
From a working and non-working configuration.
All FIB load-balancing is per-flow. So if you don’t have enough flows you won’t
[necessarily] get the load distribution that you want.

Subject: [vpp-dev] VPP ip route add multiple paths
Hello to everyone,
I am having an issue when trying to apply multiple paths on a running VPP to 3
other VPPs.
Specifically after 2 paths are up when I add the 3rd path one or both the first
two stop working. I am using these commands:
sudo vppctl -s /run/vpp/cli-vpprouter1.sock ip route add 48.0.0.0/8 via
10.10.3.2
sudo vppctl -s /run/vpp/cli-vpprouter1.sock ip route add 48.0.0.0/8 via
10.10.6.2
sudo vppctl -s /run/vpp/cli-vpprouter1.sock ip route add 48.0.0.0/8 via
10.10.12.2
On the same subject I have an issue when trying to set different weights on a 2
route path. As suggested on this
doc https://docs.fd.io/vpp/21.01/de/db4/clicmd_src_vnet_ip.html#clicmd_ip_route
I use:
sudo vppctl -s /run/vpp/cli-vpprouter1.sock ip route add 48.0.0.0/8 via
10.10.3.2 weight 9
sudo vppctl -s /run/vpp/cli-vpprouter1.sock ip route add 48.0.0.0/8 via
10.10.6.2 weight 1
but the traffic on weight 1 route is not the 1/10 of the total traffic, more
like 4/10 of it. And that's the good scenario. When traffic
gets elevated VPP sends most of the traffic on the path with the lower value
rather than what I expected it to do.
All vpps are connected through memif sockets.
Can anyone help me with any of these issues? Is it me I am doing something
extremely wrong?
