Hello,
I have opened your file but to be honest, I cannot really figure out what you are asking. Can you explain further ?

Hello,
My question is: Is it possible to configure load balancing on the two routers using API
Awaiting for a response.

Hello,
I added a policy to your Network Controller with the name EIGRP and the scope being R3 and R4. It looks like the SDN in Packet Tracer has only limited functionality, as it does not seem to allow me to actually configure anything in the policy (such as EIGRP load balancing, in your case). I am not sure if you are supposed to do this through external REST API...

Hello,
Thanks for adding the policy. I understand about the limitations of Packet Tracer.
Thank you & Have a nice day.

Hello,
what are the exact requirements ? What instructions are you following ?

Hello @Georg Pauwen,
My requirement is to balance the traffic load between APs or routers to avoid a single device from being overloaded.
Till now, I have not yet come across an alternative for it.
Awaiting for a response.

Hello,
your MS layer 3 switch is already doing load balancing (see output below). Are you supposed to do this through the SDN ?
MS#sh ip route

D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2
E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2, E - EGP
i - IS-IS, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2, ia - IS-IS inter area
* - candidate default, U - per-user static route, o - ODR

Hello,
Thank you for your response.
Indeed, I want to do the load balancing through the SDN. Is there any way to do it ?
Awaiting for a response.
