Configuring Load Sharing For Link Aggregation Groups; Configuring The Global Link-Aggregation Load Sharing Criteria - HP A6600 Configuration Manual

• When an aggregate interface is brought up, the aggregation state of ports in the corresponding
aggregation group is recalculated and their link state becomes up.
To shut down an aggregate interface:
To do...
1. Enter system view
2. Enter
aggregate
interface
view
3. Shut down the aggregate
interface or subinterface
Shutting down an aggregate subinterface does not affect any aggregation group, because an aggregate
subinterface does not have an associated aggregation group.
Configuring load sharing for link aggregation
groups
Determine how traffic is load-shared in a link aggregation group by configuring load sharing criteria. The
criteria can be IP addresses or MAC addresses carried in packets, or any combination.
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 is available, the group uses
the global load sharing criteria.

Configuring the global link-aggregation load sharing criteria

To configure the global link-aggregation load sharing criteria:
To do...
1. Enter system view
2. Configure the global
link-aggregation load
sharing criteria
Use the command...
system-view
Enter Layer 2
interface bridge-aggregation
aggregate
interface-number
interface view
Enter Layer 3
aggregate interface route-aggregation
interface or { interface-number |
subinterface interface-number.subnumber }
view
shutdown
Use the command...
system-view
link-aggregation load-sharing mode
{ destination-ip | destination-mac |
source-ip | source-mac | per-packet }
Remarks
—
Required.
By default, the global link-aggregation
load sharing criteria is
destination-mac and source-mac at
Layer 2, and destination-ip and
source-ip at Layer 3.
With this command configured, all
link-aggregation load sharing criteria
are changed.

Required.
Use either command.
Required.
By default, aggregate interfaces
or subinterfaces are up.
