The preceding anti-polarization techniques require some coordinated configuration of network nodes to solve the problem and these
techniques are not scalable when the number of tiers in the network is high. Flow based hashing specifically addresses this using Macro
flow-based Hash function. It facilitates a dynamic hash function selection across different nodes in a network on a macro flow basis, thus
reducing unfair distribution of bandwidth between members and starvation.
Selection of Algorithms is available under flow-based-hashing enabling another level of randomness in hash selection. CLI to enable flow-
based hashing is shown in the given example:
Dell_GW1(conf)#hash-algorithm ecmp flow-based-hashing ?
crc16
crc16cc
crc32MSB
crc32LSB
xor1
of xor1
xor2
of xor2
xor4
of xor4
xor8
of xor8
xor16
