+
+; This example illustrates a FIB [1] with VRF [2] and ECMP [3] support. A FIB essentially is the
+; data plane copy of the routing table. The VRF support allows for multiple logical routing tables
+; to co-exist as part of the same "physical" routing table; the VRF ID typically identifies the
+; logical table to provide the matching route for the IP destination address of the input packet.
+; The ECMP provides a load balancing mechanism for the packet forwarding by allowing for multiple
+; next hops (of equal or different weights, in case of WCMP [4]) to be provided for each route.
+;
+; In this example, the VRF ID is read from the IP source address of the input packet as opposed to a
+; more complex classification scheme being used. The routing table produces the ID of the group of
+; next hops associated with the current route, out of which a single next hop is selected based on a
+; hashing scheme that preserves the packet order within each flow (with the flow defined here by a
+; typical 3-tuple) by always selecting the same next hop for packets that are part of the same flow.
+; The next hop provides the Ethernet header and the output port for the outgoing packet.
