Specifies the policy for equal cost load splitting of network traffic. There are two values for PATH SPLIT POLICY INTERIM: Specifies that all traffic will be split over all equal cost paths while forcing individual network sessions over the same paths in order to guarantee that packets will be received by the destination node in the correct order. The INTERIM value should be set if some of the nodes in the network do not support out-of-order packet caching. (VMS version 4.5 and earlier VMS releases do not support out-of-order caching). NORMAL: Specifies that all traffic will be split equally over all equal cost paths to a destination node. All nodes must support out-of-order packet caching (VMS Version 4.6 or later), otherwise, network performance may suffer. This is the default value for PATH SPLIT POLICY.
