We are trying to balance the load between two
sites, using 2 parallel 56kbps circuits.
We are using IGRP.
The second (new) line is barely used, the old one
just as congested as ever.
 
The problem as I see it is the ip route-cache.
(Note:  this is
not the routing database, but the cache which
says to get to network x send out interface
y--the contents of this cache are displayed using
the show ip route-cache command).
 
Route-caching may be disabled on an interface basis,
but this does not affect the contents of the cache.
 
Is there a way (undocumented,
as far as I can tell) to clear this cache, short of powering
off the router?
