ip nexthop is used to manipulate entries in the kernel's nexthop tables. ip nexthop add id ID add new nexthop entry ip nexthop replace id ID change the configuration of a nexthop or add new one via [ FAMILY ] ADDRESS the address of the nexthop router, in the address family FAMILY. Address family must match address family of nexthop instance. dev NAME is the output device. onlink pretend that the nexthop is directly attached to this link, even if it does not match any interface prefix. encap ENCAPTYPE ENCAPHDR attach tunnel encapsulation attributes to this route. ENCAPTYPE is a string specifying the supported encapsulation type. Namely: mpls - encapsulation type MPLS ENCAPHDR is a set of encapsulation attributes specific to the ENCAPTYPE. mpls MPLSLABEL - mpls label stack with labels separated by / ttl TTL - TTL to use for MPLS header or 0 to inherit from IP header group GROUP [ type TYPE [ TYPE_ARGS ] ] create a nexthop group. Group specification is id with an optional weight (id,weight) and a '/' as a separator between entries. TYPE is a string specifying the nexthop group type. Namely: mpath - Multipath nexthop group backed by the hash-threshold algorithm. The default when the type is unspecified. resilient - Resilient nexthop group. Group is resilient to addition and deletion of nexthops. TYPE_ARGS is a set of attributes specific to the TYPE. resilient buckets BUCKETS - Number of nexthop buckets. Cannot be changed for an existing group idle_timer IDLE - Time in seconds in which a nexthop bucket does not see traffic and is therefore considered idle. Default is 120 seconds unbalanced_timer UNBALANCED - Time in seconds in which a nexthop group is unbalanced and is therefore considered unbalanced. The kernel will try to rebalance unbalanced groups, which might result in some flows being reset. A value of 0 means that no rebalancing will take place. Default is 0 seconds blackhole create a blackhole nexthop fdb nexthop and nexthop groups for use with layer-2 fdb entries. A fdb nexthop group can only have fdb nexthops. Example: Used to represent a vxlan remote vtep ip. layer-2 vxlan fdb entry pointing to an ecmp nexthop group containing multiple remote vtep ips. ip nexthop delete id ID delete nexthop with given id. ip nexthop show show the contents of the nexthop table or the nexthops selected by some criteria. dev DEV show the nexthops using the given device. vrf NAME show the nexthops using devices associated with the vrf name master DEV show the nexthops using devices enslaved to given master device groups show only nexthop groups fdb show only fdb nexthops and nexthop groups ip nexthop flush flushes nexthops selected by some criteria. Criteria options are the same as show. ip nexthop get id ID get a single nexthop by id ip nexthop bucket show show the contents of the nexthop bucket table or the nexthop buckets selected by some criteria. id ID show the nexthop buckets that belong to a nexthop group with a given id nhid ID show the nexthop buckets that hold a nexthop with a given id dev DEV show the nexthop buckets using the given device vrf NAME show the nexthop buckets using devices associated with the vrf name master DEV show the nexthop buckets using devices enslaved to given master device ip nexthop bucket get id ID index INDEX get a single nexthop bucket by nexthop group id and bucket index
ip nexthop ls Show all nexthop entries in the kernel. ip nexthop add id 1 via 192.168.1.1 dev eth0 Adds an IPv4 nexthop with id 1 using the gateway 192.168.1.1 out device eth0. ip nexthop add id 2 encap mpls 200/300 via 10.1.1.1 dev eth0 Adds an IPv4 nexthop with mpls encapsulation attributes attached to it. ip nexthop add id 3 group 1/2 Adds a nexthop with id 3. The nexthop is a group using nexthops with ids 1 and 2 at equal weight. ip nexthop add id 4 group 1,5/2,11 Adds a nexthop with id 4. The nexthop is a group using nexthops with ids 1 and 2 with nexthop 1 at weight 5 and nexthop 2 at weight 11. ip nexthop add id 5 via 192.168.1.2 fdb Adds a fdb nexthop with id 5. ip nexthop add id 7 group 5/6 fdb Adds a fdb nexthop group with id 7. A fdb nexthop group can only have fdb nexthops. ip nexthop add id 10 group 1/2 type resilient buckets 32 Add a resilient nexthop group with id 10 and 32 nexthop buckets.
