If you can get two candidate routes for the same destination into the FIB, then you'll get per-flow load balancing as long as CEF is running, no?
Yes and no. CEF is {src, dst} hash IIRC, and "per-flow" usually means {src, srcport, dst, dstport, [proto, tos]} hash in my experience.
Even if the hash is only calculated over source and destination IP addresses, the end effect is still that packets associated with a single flow still follow the same route where there is more than one candidate route available. Joe
