BGP load-sharing

Some new IOS commands override BGP's default behavior in selecting a single best route. In my case I need to load-balance eBGP routes to multiple desinations for redundancy & failover. IOS commands are: - maximum-paths X - this is a global command.

There's a command to load-balance (Cisco's words) unequal cost links:

- bgp dmzlink-bw

Has anyone used these in production? I'm looking for any gotchas or caveats.
