Configuring load sharing criteria for IRF links
When an IRF port is bound with two or more physical IRF ports, there are multiple IRF links among IRF
fabrics.
Determine how traffic is load-shared among members by configuring load sharing criteria for IRF links.
The criteria can be information carried in packets, such as IP addresses, MAC addresses, and any
combination of them. The criteria can also be packet types, such as Layer 2 and Layer 3.
Configure global (in system view) or port-specific (in IRF port view) load sharing criteria for IRF links:
• If you configure the load sharing criteria in system view, the configuration is effective for IRF links on
all IRF ports.
• If you configure load sharing criteria in IRF port view, the configuration is effective for IRF links on
this IRF port.
• An IRF port preferentially uses the port-specific load sharing criteria. If no port-specific load sharing
criteria is available, it uses the global load sharing criteria.
NOTE:
•
The load sharing criterion or criteria you configured in the same view overwrite the old ones, if any.
• If you configure a load sharing criterion not supported by the switch, you will be prompted that the
switch does not support the criterion.
• Before configuring the load sharing criteria, bind IRF ports to corresponding physical IRF ports.
Otherwise, load sharing criterion configuration fails.
Configuring global load sharing criteria
Follow these steps to configure the global IRF link load sharing criteria:

Optional
By default, the global IRF link
load sharing criteria are source
or destination MAC addresses
for Layer 2 packets, source or
destination IP addresses for
Layer 3 packets, and source or
destination port numbers for
Layer 4 packets.
