Usage
Information
Using CONFIGURATION mode, create an ECMP group ID. You can then assign interfaces to the
ECMP group using CONFIGURATION ECMP-GROUP mode. You can also enable on the port-channel
configuration using the CONFIGURATION ECMP-GROUP command mode.
hash-algorithm
Changes the hash algorithm used to distribute traffic flows across a Port Channel. The ECMP and LAG options are supported on
the Z-Series.

crc32LSB | crc-upper | dest-ip | lsb | xor1 | xor2 | xor4 | xor8 | xor16}
[number] hg {crc16 | crc16cc | crc32MSB | crc32LSB | xor1 | xor2 | xor4

To return to the default hash algorithm, use the no hash-algorithm command.
To return to the default ECMP hash algorithm, use the no hash-algorithm ecmp algorithm-value
command.
To remove the hash algorithm on a particular stack-unit, use the no hash-algorithm linecard
number command.
Parameters
algorithm-
number
Enter the algorithm number. The range is from 0 to 47.

TeraScale and ExaScale Only: Enter the keyword ecmp then one of the following
options:
● crc16: Use CRC16_BISYNC — 16 bit CRC16-bisync polynomial (default)
● crc16cc: Use CRC16_CCITT — 16 bit CRC16 using CRC16-CCITT polynomial
● crc32MSB: Use CRC32_UPPER — MSB 16 bits of computed CRC32
● crc32LSB: Use CRC32_LOWER — LSB 16 bits of computed CRC32
● crc-upper: Uses the upper 32 bits of the key for the hash computation
● dest-ip: Uses the destination IP for ECMP hashing
● lsb: Returns the LSB of the key as the hash
● xor1: Use CRC16_BISYNC_AND_XOR1 — Upper 8 bits of CRC16-BISYNC and
lower 8 bits of xor1
● xor2: Use CRC16_BISYNC_AND_XOR2 — Upper 8 bits of CRC16-BISYNC and
lower 8 bits of xor2
● xor4: Use CRC16_BISYNC_AND_XOR4 — Upper 8 bits of CRC16-BISYNC and
lower 8 bits of xor4
● xor8: Use CRC16_BISYNC_AND_XOR8 — Upper 8 bits of CRC16-BISYNC and
lower 8 bits of xor8
● xor16: Use CR16 — 16 bit XOR
