Element Description
ID field ID number of the trunk group.

Port Members field Ports that belong to the trunk group.
Distribution Type field Distribution type of the trunk group. This field displays one of the
following types:

srcMac—bases load distribution on the source MAC address
of the incoming packet. Packets from different hosts use
different ports in the channel, but packets from the same host
use the same port in the channel.

MAC address of the incoming packet. Packets to the same
destination travel on the same port, but packets to different
destinations travel on different ports in the channel.
• srcDstMac—bases load distribution on the MAC address of
the source logic gate (XOR) destination.
• srcIp—bases the load distribution on the source IP address.
Packets from the same source travel on the same port, but
packets from different sources travel on different ports in the
channel.
• dstIp—bases the load distribution on the destination IP
address of the incoming packet. Packets to the same
