global-merge-capability
Use this command to override the default merge capability setting of all the interfaces for the current LSR.
The merge capability aggregates multiple incoming flows with the same destination address into a single outgoing flow. This reduces the label-space shortage by sharing labels for different flows with the same destination, or the same FEC (Forwarding Equivalence Class).
Use the no parameter to revert to the default merge capability settings of all the interfaces for this LSR.
