– After an interface is added to an Eth-Trunk, MAC address learning is performed by the
Eth-Trunk rather than the member interfaces.

1.4.5 (Optional) Configuring the Load Balancing Mode
Context
Perform the following steps on the AR3200 to configure an Eth-Trunk in load balancing mode.
Procedure
l Configuring a Layer 2 Eth-Trunk interface
1. Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
2. Run:
load-balance { dst-ip | dst-mac | src-ip | src-mac | src-dst-ip | src-dst-
mac }
The load balancing mode is configured for the Eth-Trunk.
By default, the load balancing mode of a Layer 2 Eth-Trunk is src-dst-mac.
Member interfaces of an Eth-Trunk perform per-flow load balancing. The local end
and the remote end can use different load balancing modes, without affecting each
other.
NOTE
All Layer 2 Eth-Trunks in the system must use the same load balancing mode. If the load
balancing mode of one Eth-Trunk is changed, all the other Eth-Trunks use the new load
balancing mode.
l Configuring a Layer 3 Eth-Trunk interface
1. Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
2. Run:
interface eth-trunk trunk-id
The Eth-Trunk interface view is displayed.
3. Run:
load-balance { dst-ip | dst-mac | src-ip | src-mac | src-dst-ip | src-dst-
mac }
The load balancing mode is configured for the Eth-Trunk.
By default, the load balancing mode of a Layer 3 Eth-Trunk is src-dst-ip.
Member interfaces of an Eth-Trunk perform per-flow load balancing. The local end
and the remote end can use different load balancing modes, without affecting each
other.
