On the JNCIE-ENT blueprint, under "Interfaces" there is a bullet point "load-balancing".

Is this per-packet load balancing:

[edit]
policy-options {
    policy-statement load-balancing-policy {
        then {
            load-balance per-packet;
        }
    }
}
routing-options {
    forwarding-table {
        export load-balancing-policy;
    }
}

Or is this something else? Because the "load-balance per-packet" is DEFINITELY the "load-balancing" under the Protocol Independant Routing section. Is this listed twice?

Or is this load balancing for LAG interfaces?

Removed my technical resonse, since this was a blueprint clarification question.

Hi Freely,

Doug is going down the right path here, you will want to know how to implement load balancing in every place where it's relevant to do so, either as a function of default behavoir or by configuration.

To help be a bit more clear in the blueprint, we will reduce to just one mention of 'load-balancing'.

I'm well aware of exactly what he's talking about, but it still doesn't address why it's mentioned twice in the blueprint... wasn't sure if I was missing something.
