Usage Information
Since this command calculates based on a Layer 2 hash algorithm, use this command to display flows
for switched Layer 2 packets, not for routed packets (use the show ip flow command to display routed
packets).
The show port-channel-flow command returns the egress port identification in a given port-channel, if
a valid flow is entered. A mismatched flow error occurs if MAC-based hashing is configured for a
Layer 2 interface and the user is trying to display a Layer 3 flow.
The output will display three entries:
Egress port for unfragmented packets.
In the event of fragmented packets, egress port of the first fragment.
In the event of fragmented packets, egress port of the subsequent fragments.
Example
show port-channel-flow outgoing-port-channel number incoming-interface interface source-mac
address destination-mac address
Load-balance is configured for MAC
Load balance is configured for IP 4-tuple/2-tuple for the C-Series and S-Series
A non-IP payload is going out of Layer 2 LAG interface that is a member of VLAN with an IP
address.
Figure 18-46. show port-channel-flow Command for MAC Addresses
Example
On the E-Series only:
show port-channel-flow outgoing-port-channel number incoming-interface interface source-ip
address destination-ip address {protocol number [icmp/tcp/udp]} {source-port number
destination-port number}
Load balance is configured for IP 5-tuple/3-tuple.
An IP payload is going out of a Layer 2 LAG interface that is a member of a VLAN with an IP
address.

Egress Port for port-channel 2, for the given flow:
Unfragmented packet: Gi 1/6
Fragmented packets (first fragment): Gi 1/12
Fragmented packets (remaining fragments): Gi 1/12
