irf-port load-sharing mode

Use irf-port load-sharing mode to configure a port-specific load sharing mode for an IRF port to distribute traffic across its physical links.

Use undo irf-port load-sharing mode to restore the default.

Syntax

irf-port load-sharing mode { destination-ip | destination-mac | source-ip | source-mac } *

undo irf-port load-sharing mode

Default

The global IRF link load sharing mode applies.

Parameters

destination-ip: Distributes traffic across IRF member links based on destination IP address.

destination-mac: Distributes packets across IRF member links based on destination MAC address.

source-ip: Distributes packets across IRF member links based on source IP address.

source-mac: Distributes packets across IRF member links based on source MAC address.

Usage guidelines

To successfully configure a port-specific load sharing mode for an IRF port, make sure you have bound a minimum of one physical interface to the IRF port.

You can configure an IRF port-specific load sharing mode to include a combination of multiple criteria for making traffic distribution decisions. For example, criteria could include source MAC address and IP address. If your device does not support a criterion combination, the system displays an error message.

If you configure the port-specific load sharing mode multiple times on an IRF port, the most recent configuration takes effect.

An IRF port preferentially uses the port-specific load sharing mode. If no port-specific load sharing mode is available, the port uses the global load sharing mode.
