• Destination MAC Address: All traffic with the same destination MAC address is
output on the same link in a trunk. This mode works best for switch-to-switch trunk
links where traffic through the switch is destined for many different hosts. Do not
use this mode for switch-to-router trunk links where the destination MAC address
is the same for all traffic.
• Source IP Address: All traffic with the same source IP address is output on the
same link in a trunk. This mode works best for switch-to-router or switch-to-server
trunk links where traffic through the switch is received from many different hosts.
• Destination IP Address: All traffic with the same destination IP address is output
on the same link in a trunk. This mode works best for switch-to-router trunk links
where traffic through the switch is destined for many different hosts. Do not use this
mode for switch-to-server trunk links where the destination IP address is the same
for all traffic.
• Source and Destination MAC Address: All traffic with the same source and
destination MAC address is output on the same link in a trunk. This mode works
best for switch-to-switch trunk links where traffic through the switch is received
from and destined for many different hosts.
• Source and Destination IP Address: All traffic with the same source and
destination IP address is output on the same link in a trunk. This mode works best
for switch-to-router trunk links where traffic through the switch is received from and
destined for many different hosts.
