Configuring Load Balancing for Ethernet Pseudowires
You can configure load balancing for IPv4 traffic over Layer 2 Ethernet pseudowires. You
can also configure load balancing for Ethernet pseudowires based on IP information. The
option to include IP information in the hash key provides support for Ethernet circuit
cross-connect (CCC) connections.
NOTE: This feature is supported only on M120, M320, MX Series, and T Series
routers.
To configure load balancing for IPv4 traffic over Layer 2 Ethernet pseudowires, include
the ether-pseudowire statement at the [edit forwarding-options hash-key family mpls
payload] hierarchy level:
[edit forwarding-options]
hash-key {
family mpls {
(label-1 | no-labels);
payload {
ether-pseudowire;
}
}
}
NOTE: You must also configure either the label-1 or the no-labels statement
at the [edit forwarding-options hash-key family mpls] hierarchy level.
You can also configure load balancing for Ethernet pseudowires based on IP information.
This functionality provides support for load balancing for Ethernet cross-circuit connect
(CCC) connections. To include IP information in the hash key, include the ip statement
at the [edit forwarding-options hash-key family mpls payload] hierarchy level:
[edit forwarding-options]
hash-key {
family mpls {
(label-1 | no-labels);
payload {
ip;
}
}
}
NOTE: You must also configure either the label-1 or no-labels statement at
the [edit forwarding-options hash-key family mpls] hierarchy level.
You can configure load balancing for IPv4 traffic over Ethernet pseudowires to include
only Layer 3 IP information in the hash key. To include only Layer 3 IP information, include
