Load balancing not equal in ETh-Trunk

Hi friend!

When configuring a load balancing mode, pay attention to the following points:

1. The load balancing mode takes effect only on traffic leaving outbound interfaces. If traffic arriving at inbound interfaces is uneven, change the load balancing mode of the uplink outbound interface.

2. If possible, ensure data flows are load-balanced among all active links. If data flows are transmitted over one link, traffic congestion may occur, affecting services.

For example, when data packets have only one destination MAC address and one destination IP address, perform load balancing based on the source MAC address and source IP address. If load balancing based on the destination MAC address and destination IP address is used, traffic is transmitted over one link, causing congestion.

3. If traffic is unevenly load-balanced after the configuration is complete, rectify the fault according to How Do I Adjust Eth-Trunk Configurations on S Series Switches When Eth-Trunk Load Balancing Is Uneven.

Hope to help you!
