case of Layer 3 VPN, the traffic may not be equally distributed across the member links
as the layer 3 addresses also get accounted for (along with the labels) for the hash input
function.
For LER scenarios, in case of ACX5048 and ACX5096, hashing based on Layer 3 and
Layer 4 fields is possible by configuring the payload option under the "family mpls"
hierarchy. Hashing on the LER is not be based on Labels. For Layer 3 service, it is mandatory
to mention the payload as "layer-3-only" and specify "port-data" in case of Layer 4 service.
You can also mention the label count while configuring hash-keys on LER routers.
NOTE: LER and LSR load balancing behavior is applicable for
CCC/VPLS/Layer 3 VPN and other IP MPLS scenarios.
This feature applies to aggregated Ethernet and aggregated SONET/SDH interfaces. In
addition, you can configure load balancing for IPv4 traffic over Layer 2 Ethernet
pseudowires. You can also configure load balancing for Ethernet pseudowires based on
IP information. The option to include IP information in the hash key provides support for
Ethernet circuit cross-connect (CCC) connections.
