The maximum number of paths with equal metrics
1 for BGP; 4 for other protocols

For BGP, the meaning of this command is slightly different, since BGP doesn’t have a simple routing metric. For BGP, this command allows you to increase the number of parallel equal-length paths that the router maintains in its tables.
