Parameters
destination-ip: Distributes traffic across IRF member links based on destination IP address.
destination-mac: Distributes packets across IRF member links based on destination MAC address.
ingress-port: Distributes packets across IRF member links based on incoming port. This keyword is
not supported in the current software version.
source-ip: Distributes packets across IRF member links based on source IP address.
source-mac: Distributes packets across IRF member links based on source MAC address.
Usage guidelines
The global IRF link load sharing mode applies to all IRF ports in the IRF fabric. You can configure the
sharing mode to include a combination of multiple criteria for making traffic distribution decisions. If
your device does not support a criterion combination, the system displays an error message.
If you configure the global load sharing mode multiple times, the most recent configuration takes
effect.
You can also configure a port-specific load sharing mode for an IRF port in IRF port view by using the
irf-port load-sharing mode command.
An IRF port preferentially uses the port-specific load sharing mode. If no port-specific load sharing
mode is available, the port uses the global load sharing mode.
Examples
# Configure the global IRF link load sharing mode to distribute traffic based on destination MAC
address.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] irf-port global load-sharing mode destination-mac
