Penerapan Load Balancing Menggunakan Metode Equal Cost Multi Path (ECMP) pada Jaringan Semesta Group

Today the development of information technology is so fast that it brings many changes to human activities. Many companies today use two connection lines. Even though a company has taken advantage of the use of both internet connection links, new problems arise if one of the links experiences interference. As in the main office of the Semesta Group which has two internet connections or links, in its implementation problems often occur when accessing the internet and information systems, due to full traffic because they are accessed simultaneously. The second obstacle is when one of the connection links is interrupted, the division using it will be hampered by its work. Therefore, it is necessary to "Implement Load Balancing Using the Equal Cost Multi Path (ECMP) Method in the Semesta Group Network". Load balancing is a technique of distributing traffic loads on two or more connection lines, so that traffic can run better, the ECMP method allows automatic connection switching when one of the connections is interrupted to an active connection. Will be implemented in the main office of the Semesta Group. The load balancing application using the ECMP method on the Semesta Group network can run well with a 5: 1 gateway ratio, namely 100 Mbps on the first link and 20 Mbps on the second link. The failover effect on the Semesta Group network goes well when the connection to one of the links is lost automatically the connection will be moved to the active link
