Hi Friend,

AFAIK ospf does load balancing only for equal cost path and cannot be configured for unequal cost path.

Hi Neo,

Yes you are right.

Hi,

EBGP also now has the capablility to do unequal-cost load balancing, using the dmz-link bandwidth feature.

Hello,

not to forget about MPLS traffic engineering, which allows unequal cost load balancing through different tunnels.
