MULTIPATH type SUPPORT IS ENABLED

Explanation

Multipath support is enabled for all route tables. If the stack is using policy-based routing, the RouteTable statement in the policy configuration can be used to disable multipath support for a policy-based route table or to enable a different type of multipath support for a policy-based route table. See the information about policy-based routing (Routing) policy statements in z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Reference.

In the message text:
type
The type of multipath support that is enabled. Possible values are:
PERCONNECTION
After a round-robin route is selected, connection-oriented or connectionless-oriented IP packets using the same association always use the same route, as long as that route is active.
PERPACKET
Connection-oriented or connectionless-oriented IP packets using the same source and destination address pair do not always use the same route, but do use all possible active routes to that destination host.

In general, multipath routing provides the routing distribution that is required to balance the network use of outbound packets. Multipath routing requires that multiple equal-cost routes be defined. These routes are either defined statically or added dynamically by routing protocols. If MULTIPATH is specified without any subparameters, the default is PERCONNECTION.
