Algorithm
Parameters
Select the outgoing traffic distribution type. Packets from the same source
and/or to the same destination are sent over the same link within the
trunk. By default, the Switch uses the Source MAC distribution type. If the
Switch is behind a router, the packet’s destination or source MAC address
will be changed. In this case, set the Switch to distribute traffic based on its
IP address to make sure port trunking can work properly.
Select Source Port to distribute traffic based on the packet’s source port.
Select Source MAC to distribute traffic based on the packet’s source MAC
address.
Select Destination MAC to distribute traffic based on the packet’s
destination MAC address.
Select Source IP to distribute traffic based on the packet’s source IP
address.
Select Destination IP to distribute traffic based on the packet’s
destination IP address.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch.
