By default, no global SPBM link metric
value is configured.

Configuring the bandwidth reference for automatic link metric calculation

ISIS-SPB automatically calculates a link metric value for an interface if both the global and

interface-specific link metric value are not configured.
The following is the calculation formula:
Link metric value=(Reference bandwidth/Real bandwidth)x10
The value range for the link metric value is 1 to 16777214.
To configure the bandwidth reference for automatic link metric calculation:

Mapping B-VLANs to an ECT algorithm

An ECT algorithm represents a set of tie-breakers for calculating SPTs.
To improve link efficiency in an SPBM network, you can distribute B-VLAN traffic along different paths by

mapping B-VLANs to different ECT algorithms.
To ensure correct SPT calculation for a B-VLAN, the B-VLAN to ECT algorithm mappings must be the same

across the SPBM network for B-VLANs.
For more information about the ECT algorithms, see IEEE 802.1aq SPB.
