set fe-switch-hardware-hashing-method

This command is used to select the hashing method to distribute traffic through the Sensor.

Note the following:

In a HA pair, when you execute the command on the primary Sensor, the command is set on the secondary Sensor also.
Sensor reboot does not change settings for the hashing method.

Syntax:

set fe-switch-hardware-hashing-method <include_MPLS><exclude_MPLS>

Parameter	Description
include_MPLS	When the incoming traffic to the Sensor is MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) traffic, select this method. Note This method will evenly distribute the MPLS traffic to the Sensor.
exclude_MPLS	This is enabled by default when the incoming traffic to the Sensor is non-MPLS traffic.

Parameter

Description

include_MPLS

When the incoming traffic to the Sensor is MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) traffic, select this method.

Note
This method will evenly distribute the MPLS traffic to the Sensor.

exclude_MPLS

This is enabled by default when the incoming traffic to the Sensor is non-MPLS traffic.

Sample output:

IntruDbg#> set fe-switch-hardware-hashing-method include_MPLS

include_MPLS : Rtag9 hashing algorithm to load balance traffic to trunk group(Id=10) is set

Applicable to:

NS9300 Sensors only
