Hello,
Short question:
* Node A is connected ("ConnectTo-Statement") to nodes B1, B2.
* Tinc is operated in routed mode.
* B1 and B2 are serving same subnets (Subnet=172.27.0.0/16,
Subnet=fdd3:5d16:b5dd:3::0/64).
How will tinc route packages to 172.27.0.0/16 and fdd3:5d16:b5dd:3::0/64
sent from A?
* Will load balancing between B1 and B2 take place?
* Is the decision stable - eg. is 172.27.23.42 routeded using B1 all time?
* Is anybody running similar setups?
Thanks, Jan

For example in our setup if a host is named 'elephant', and another named 'donkey', the host 'donkey' will route all of this traffic and 'elephant' will be unused. I have not yet taken the time to dig through the source looking for a reason to explain this, but it happens consistently and regardless of the distance of nodes.
