IPv6 Multipath support is enabled on tcpname. Multipath routing provides the routing distribution necessary to balance the network utilization of outbound packets. Multipath routing requires the definition of multiple equal-cost routes that are either defined statically or added dynamically by routing protocols.

type is either PERCONNECTION or PERPACKET.
