port-channel load-balance
This command selects the load-balancing option used on a port-channel (LAG). Traffic is balanced on a port-
channel (LAG) by selecting one of the links in the channel over which to transmit specific packets. The link is
selected by creating a binary pattern from selected fields in a packet, and associating that pattern with a
particular link.
Load-balancing is not supported on every device. The range of options for load-balancing may vary per device.
The
unit/slot/port parameter configures a LAG interface, and the all parameter configures all LAGs.
