This command applies to all static and dynamic trunks on the switch.
To ensure that the switch traffic load is distributed evenly across all
links in a trunk, select the source and destination addresses used in the
load-balance calculation to provide the best result for trunk
connections:
Destination IP Address: All traffic with the same destination IP
■
address is output on the same link in a trunk. This mode works best
for switch-to-router trunk links where traffic through the switch is
destined for many different hosts. Do not use this mode for switch-
to-server trunk links where the destination IP address is the same
for all traffic.
Destination MAC Address: All traffic with the same destination
■
MAC address is output on the same link in a trunk. This mode works
best for switch-to-switch trunk links where traffic through the
