Description
Configure the hashing key used to hash link aggregation group (LAG) and equal-cost multipath (ECMP) traffic, or enable adaptive load balancing (ALB) in a Virtual Chassis Fabric (VCF).
Starting in Junos OS Release 14.1X53-D46, 15.1R7, 16.1R6, 17.1R3, 17.2R2, 17.3R2,
and 17.4R1, the ALB feature is deprecated. If
fabric-load-balance is enabled in the configuration for a
VCF, delete the configuration item upon upgrading Junos OS.
The hashing algorithm is used to make traffic-forwarding decisions for traffic entering a LAG bundle or for traffic exiting a switch when ECMP is enabled.
For LAG bundles, the hashing algorithm determines how traffic entering a LAG bundle is placed onto the bundle’s member links. The hashing algorithm tries to manage bandwidth by evenly load-balancing all incoming traffic across the member links in the bundle.
When ECMP is enabled, the hashing algorithm determines how incoming traffic is forwarded to the next-hop device.
QFX10000 Series switches-
On QFX10000 Series switches, you can configure the hash seed for load balancing. By default, the QFX10000 Series switches use the system MAC address to generate a hash seed value. You can configure the hash seed value using the hash-seed statement at the [
edit forwarding-options enhanced-hash-key] hierarchy level. Set a value between 0 and 4294967295. If you do not configure a hash seed value, the system generates a hash seed value based on the system MAC address. -
Starting in Junos OS Release 18.4R1, symmetric hashing is supported on the QFX10000 Series switches. You configure the
no-incoming-portoption under the [edit forwarding-options enhanced-hash-key] hierarchy. By default, Destination IP (DIP), SIP, Layer 4 source and destination ports, and the incoming port are used for hashing. You can only configure symmetric hashing at the global level.
On QFX5000 Series switches, multicast packets gets duplicated or dropped when
vlan-id is included in the
enhanced-hash-key configuration. Hence, while configuring
enhanced-hash-key, you must configure
layer2-payload and layer2-header options
without configuring vlan-id. This behavior is only seen in
multicast traffic.
-
Starting in Junos OS Release 19.4R1, the dynamic load balancing on ECMP is supported on QFX5120-32C and QFX5120-48Y switches. You can configure the
ecmp-dlboption under the [edit forwarding-options enhanced-hash-key] hierarchy. Refer Dynamic Load Balancing for more details. -
To enable symmetric hashing on the QFX5000 line of switches, configure the
symmetric-hashoption.
Enhanced hash key is supported on SRX5000 routers by implementing control path
for for the configured setting to reach the services processing card (SPC2) and
SPC3. You configure the session-id option to enable the control
path for the configured setting to reach the service processing unit
(SPU).
