Configuring load-sharing criteria for link aggregation groups

You can determine how traffic is load-shared in a link aggregation group by configuring load-sharing
criteria. The criteria can be MAC addresses, service port numbers, ingress ports, or IP addresses carried
in packets, or any combination. You can also let the system automatically choose link-aggregation
load-sharing criteria based on packet types (Layer 2, IPv4, or IPv6, for example) or perform per-packet
load sharing.
You can configure global or group-specific load-sharing criteria. A link aggregation group preferentially
uses the group-specific load-sharing criteria. If no group-specific load-sharing criteria are available, the
group uses the global load-sharing criteria.
Configuring the global link-aggregation load-sharing criteria
Follow these steps to configure the global link-aggregation load-sharing criteria:
To do...
Enter system view
Configure the global
link-aggregation
load-sharing criteria
In system view, the switch supports the following load-sharing criteria and combinations:
Source IP address
•
Destination IP address
•
• Source MAC address
Destination MAC address
•
Source IP address and destination IP address
•
Source IP address and source port
•
Destination IP address and destination port
•
• Any combination of incoming port, source MAC address, and destination MAC address
Configuring group-specific load-sharing criteria
