Chapter 3 CLI Commands
(config) port-channel
(config) port-channel
To configure the port channel load-balancing options on a WAAS device, use the port-channel global
configuration command. Use the no form of this command to set load balancing on the port channel to
its default method.
port-channel load-balance {dst-ip | dst-mac | round-robin}
Syntax Description
Defaults Round-robin is the default load-balancing method.
Command Modes global configuration
Device Modes application-accelerator
central-manager
Usage Guidelines The port-channel load-balance command configures one of three load-balancing algorithms and
provides flexibility in choosing interfaces when an Ethernet frame is sent. The round-robin option
allows evenly balanced usage of identical network interfaces in a channel group. Because this command
takes effect globally, if two channel groups are configured, they must use the same load-balancing
option.
Examples The following example configures destination IP load balancing on a port channel and then disables it:
WAE(config)# port-channel load-balance dst-ip
WAE(config)# no port-channel load-balance
load-balance Configures the load-balancing method.
dst-ip Specifies the load-balancing method using destination IP addresses.
dst-mac Specifies the load-balancing method using destination MAC addresses.
round-robin Specifies the load-balancing method using round-robin sequential, cyclical
resource allocation.
