Command Usage

• This command applies to all static and dynamic trunks on the switch.

• To ensure that the switch traffic load is distributed evenly across all links in a

trunk, select the source and destination addresses used in the load-balance
calculation to provide the best result for trunk connections:

- dst-ip: 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.

- dst-mac: 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.

- src-dst-mac: 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.
