Setting Unequal Load Balancing Parameters
The first step you must take to configure unequal load balancing requires that you set the parameters on each
specific interface. The default load share for tunnels with no explicit configuration is the configured bandwidth.
Equal load-sharing occurs if there is no configured bandwidth.
