2.6.2.5 (Optional) Configuring a Load Balancing Mode
Context
Perform the following steps on the device to configure a load balancing mode for an Eth-Trunk.
Procedure
l Configure a Layer 2 Eth-Trunk.
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 }
A 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.
Eth-Trunk member interfaces use flow-based load balancing. The local and remote
ends 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 Configure a Layer 3 Eth-Trunk.
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 }
A 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.
Eth-Trunk member interfaces use flow-based load balancing. The local and remote
ends can use different load balancing modes, without affecting each other.
