Configuration Guide Aggregate Port Configuration
In the following diagram, a switch communicates with a router through an AP, and the router
serves as the gateway for all the devices inside the network (such as 4 PCs on the top of the
diagram). The source MAC addresses of all the packets that the devices outside the network
(such as 2 PCs at the bottom of the diagram) send through the router are the MAC address
of the gateway. In order to distribute traffic between the router and other hosts on other links,
traffic balancing should be performed based on the destination MAC address. However,
traffic balancing should be performed based on the source MAC address on the switch.
When the traffic balancing mode is source IP address-based,
destination IP address-based, or source IP address and destination IP
address-based traffic balancing mode, Layer 2 packets are distributed
under the default device mode. You can execute show
aggregateport load-balance command to get the default device
mode before setting the parameter aggregateport load-balance.

Default Aggregate Port Configuration
The default AP configuration is shown in the table below.
Traffic is distributed according to the source MAC
addresses of the incoming packets.
