### Description

```asn1
mscRtgDpnForwardingPolicy OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER {
loadspread(0),
loadshare(1),
loadspreadFast(2) }
ACCESS read-write
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"This attribute specifies the forwarding policy used by packet
forwarding to handle DPN traffic on a Passport module.

When this attribute is set to loadshare, DPN traffic is shared among
preferred links in a link group in proportion to the available
bandwidth on each link; the traffic is not forwarded in an order-
preserved manner and needs resequencing at the destination, but the
available bandwidth in a link group is utilized efficiently.

When this attribute is set to loadspread, DPN traffic is forwarded in
an order-preserved manner along a randomly selected route; the
traffic sticks to a particular link in a link group, and will not spill
over to other links in the link group unless there is congestion on
the selected link.

When this attribute is set to loadspreadFast, DPN traffic is
forwarded in an order-preserved manner along a randomly selected
route; the traffic sticks to a particular link in a link group, and will
not spill over to other links in the link group. Choosing this value
may improve throughput but traffic may be discarded in the
presence of congestion.

It is recommended that all nodes in the network be provisioned with
the same forwarding policy."
