Configuring LAG

2.1 Using the GUI

Choose the menu Switching > LAG > LAG Table to load the following page.

Figure 2-1 Global Config

In the Global Config section, select the load-balancing algorithm. Click Apply.

Hash Algorithm

 Load-balancing algorithm is effective only for outgoing traffic. If the data stream is not

well shared by each link, you can change the algorithm of the outgoing interface.

 Please properly choose the load-balancing algorithm to avoid data stream transferring

only on one physical link. For example, Switch A receives packets from several hosts

and forwards them to the Server with the fixed MAC address and IP address, you can

set the algorithm as "SRC MAC+SRC IP" to allow Switch A to determine the forwarding

port based on the source MAC addresses and source IP addresses of the received

Select the Hash Algorithm, based on which the switch can choose the port to send

the received packets. In this way, different data flows are forwarded on different

physical links to implement load balancing. There are six options:

SRC MAC: The computation is based on the source MAC addresses of the packets.

DST MAC: The computation is based on the destination MAC addresses of the

SRC MAC+DST MAC: The computation is based on the source and destination MAC

addresses of the packets.

SRC IP: The computation is based on the source IP addresses of the packets.

DST IP: The computation is based on the destination IP addresses of the packets.

SRC IP+DST IP: The computation is based on the source and destination IP

addresses of the packets.
