To configure per-flow load sharing algorithm settings for Ethernet link aggregation:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Configure the load sharing
algorithm.
3. Configure the load sharing
algorithm seed.

Enabling link-aggregation traffic redirection

Link-aggregation traffic redirection prevents traffic interruption.
When you shut down a Selected port in an aggregation group, this feature redirects traffic to other
Selected ports.
When you restart an IRF member device that contains Selected ports, this feature redirects traffic to other
IRF member devices.

Configuration restrictions and guidelines

When you enable ink-aggregation traffic redirection, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
• Link-aggregation traffic redirection applies only to dynamic link aggregation groups and takes
effect on only known unicast packets.
To prevent traffic interruption, enable link-aggregation traffic redirection on devices at both ends of
•
the aggregate link.
To prevent packet loss that might occur at a reboot, do not enable spanning tree together with
•
link-aggregation traffic redirection.
• Link-aggregation traffic redirection does not operate correctly on an edge aggregate interface.
