Chapter 8: Static and LACP Port Trunks

158

Section I: Basic Features

The load distribution methods assume that the final three bits of the
source and/or destination addresses of the packets from the network
nodes are varied enough to support adequate distribution of the packets
over the trunk ports. A lack of variation can result in one or more ports in a
trunk being used more than others, with the potential loss of a trunk’s
efficiency and performance.
