NETGEAR 8800 Chassis Switch CLI Manual Example The following command configures the remote ID sub-option to specify the switch name in DHCP requests and replies: configure bootprelay dhcp-agent information remote-id system-name configure forwarding sharing configure forwarding sharing [L3 | L3_L4] Description Identifies the fields that are used to select ECMP routes and load-sharing group ports. Syntax Description L3 L3_L4 Uses only Layer 3 IP addresses to select ECMP routes and load-sharing ports. Uses Layer 3 IP addresses and Layer 4 TCP/UDP port numbers, if present, to select ECMP routes and load-sharing ports. Default L3_L4 Usage Guidelines This command configures the criteria used to select ECMP routes and load-sharing group ports. For ECMP routes, the configured criteria selects the next hop gateway. The L3 option uses only the source and destination IP addresses to select the next hop gateway. The L3_L4 option uses the Layer 4 TCP or UDP port and the source and destination IP addresses to select the next hop gateway. For load-sharing groups (link aggregation groups), the configured criteria selects the load-sharing group port. The load-sharing groups can be configured to use the following address-based algorithms: • L2-Specifies port selection based on Layer 2 information. • L3-Specifies port selection based on Layer 3 information. • L3_L4-Specifies port selection based on Layer 3 and Layer 4 information. This command affects all the load-sharing groups that use either the L3 or L3_L4 link aggregation algorithm. If the L3 option is specified, all the load-sharing groups that are configured with either the L3 or the L3_L4 address-based link aggregation algorithm use just the Layer 3 IP addresses for the egress port selection. Similarly if the L3_L4 option is specified, all the load-sharing groups that are configured with either L3 or L3_L4 Chapter 19. IP Unicast Commands | 821
