Configuring Irf Link Load Sharing Mode - HP 10500 Series Configuration Manual

Configuring IRF link load sharing mode

On an IRF port, traffic is balanced across its physical links.
You can configure the IRF port to distribute traffic based on certain criteria, including IP addresses, MAC
addresses, incoming ports, or a combination of the criteria. If a criteria combination is not supported, the
system displays an error message.
Configure the IRF link load sharing mode for IRF links in system view or IRF port view:
In system view, the configuration is global and takes effect on all IRF ports.
•
In IRF port view, the configuration is port specific and takes effect only on the specified IRF port.
•
An IRF port preferentially uses the port-specific load sharing mode. If no port-specific load sharing mode
is available, an IRF port uses the global load sharing mode.
Configuring the global load sharing mode
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Configure the global IRF
link load sharing mode.
Configuring a port-specific load sharing mode
Before you configure a port-specific load sharing mode, make sure you have bound at least one physical
port to the IRF port.
To configure a port-specific load sharing mode for an IRF port:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter IRF port view.
