Does 3650-X IP Base support Static Load Balancing or i should upgrade to ip service SW ?

Hi,
I'm not sure, but as I understand Cisco Express Forwarding uses the path information in the IP routing table to balance traffic over multiple links. And not important what you use OSPF, EIGRP or static routes. I suppose IP Base enough for load balancing.
Best regards,
Zak.

IP Base image supports static routes. So, you can have multiple static routes each using a different interface for load balancing.

Thank you jazZz and Reza, but I'm referring to equal cost load balancing via a static route. and according to the link below we need the ip services SW for the dynamic routing LoadBalancing but there is nothing for Static routing LoadBalancing

So what do u think?

Mohamed,
IP services needed if you want to run dynamic routing protocols like OSPF, Full EIGRP, BGP, etc..
Static routes are supported with IP Base, so can deploy mutiple static routes and load balance among them.
