I believe this is covered with test case "4.1.5 Convergence Due to Cost Change".

I am not sure however is if is >possible to produce comparable results when using ECMP ? (I guess it >somewhat implementation dependent function). Great suggestion. We will add a test case for measuring convergence on ECMP links.
