Load Balancing Based on Layer 2 MAC Information

To load-balance traffic based on Layer 2 media access control (MAC) information, include the family multiservice statement at the [edit forwarding-options hash-key] hierarchy level:




family multiservice {
destination-mac;
source-mac;
}

To include the destination-address MAC information in the hash key, include the destination-mac option. To include the source-address MAC information in the hash key, include the source-mac option.

Note: You can configure per-packet load balancing to optimize VPLS traffic flows across multiple paths.

Note: This feature is not supported on J-series Services Routers.
