• Change the Hash algorithm seed value to get better hash value
Hash seed is used to compute the hash value. By default hash seed is chassis MAC 32 bits. we can also change the hash seed by
the following command.
CONFIGURATION mode
hash-algorithm seed {seed value}
• Change to another algorithm.
CONFIGURATION mode
hash-algorithm [ecmp{crc16|crc16cc|crc32LSB|crc32MSB|crc-upper|dest-ip|lsb|xor1|xor2|
xor4|xor8|xor16}]
Example of the hash-algorithm Command
Dell(conf)#hash-algorithm ecmp xor 26 lag crc 26 nh-ecmp checksum 26
Dell(conf)#
The hash-algorithm command is specic to ECMP group. The default ECMP hash conguration is crc-lower. This command
takes the lower 32 bits of the hash key to compute the egress port. Other options for ECMP hash-algorithms are:
• crc16 — uses 16 bit CRC16-bisync polynomial
• crc16cc — uses 16 bit CRC16 using CRC16-CCITT polynomial
• crc32LSB — uses LSB 16 bits of computed CRC32
• crc32MSB — uses MSB 16 bits of computed CRC32(default)
• crc-upper — uses the upper 32 bits of the hash key to compute the egress port.
• dest-ip — uses destination IP address as part of the hash key.
• lsb —uses always return the LSB of the key as the hash
• xor1 — uses Upper 8 bits of CRC16-BISYNC and lower 8 bits of xor1
• xor2 — Upper 8 bits of CRC16-BISYNC and lower 8 bits of xor2
• xor4 —Upper 8 bits of CRC16-BISYNC and lower 8 bits of xor4
• xor8 — Upper 8 bits of CRC16-BISYNC and lower 8 bits of xor8
• xor16 — uses 16 bit XOR.
Bulk Conguration
Bulk conguration allows you to determine if interfaces are present for physical interfaces or congured for logical interfaces.
Interface Range
An interface range is a set of interfaces to which other commands may be applied and may be created if there is at least one valid
interface within the range.
Bulk conguration excludes from conguration any non-existing interfaces from an interface range. A default VLAN may be
congured only if the interface range being congured consists of only VLAN ports.
The interface range command allows you to create an interface range allowing other commands to be applied to that range of
interfaces.
