Trunking
Algorithm
One of the steps in creating a trunk is the selection of a load distribution
method, also known as the trunking (or load distribution) algorithm. This
algorithm determines how the switch distributes the traffic load across the
ports of the trunk. The AT-S82 Management Software provides three load
distribution methods:
ˆ MAC-SA - source MAC address
ˆ MAC-DA - destination MAC address
ˆ DAxorSA - destination MAC address/source MAC address
