Group ID
Select the link aggregation group for which the Distribution Algorithm
Parameters will be changed.
Distribution
Algorithm
Parameters
Select the outgoing traffic distribution type. Packets from the same source
and/or to the same destination are sent over the same link within the
trunk. By default, the Switch uses the
Source MAC
distribution type. If the
Switch is behind a router, the packet’s destination or source MAC address
will be changed. In this case, set the Switch to distribute traffic based on its
IP address to make sure port trunking can work properly.
Select
Source Port
to distribute traffic based on the packet’s source port.
Select
Source MAC
to distribute traffic based on the packet’s source MAC
address.
Select
Destination MAC
to distribute traffic based on the packet’s
destination MAC address.
Select
Source IP
to distribute traffic based on the packet’s source IP
address.
Select
Destination IP
to distribute traffic based on the packet’s
destination IP address.
