Well you need some kind of monitoring to determine the load. This is not
really MPLS specific so you might want to search the net for a tool that
fits your needs. Or you could write something yourself based on the
statistics in /proc/net/mpls_*. Based on the monitoring information you
can map/remap traffic on the different LSPs.=20
Another option would be to use some static load sharing. ip(8) supports
adding multiple interfaces to a single route, the traffic is shared
based on a hash on the IP header. Has anyone experience with that using
MPLS?
