show forwarding-options load-balance

Syntax

Description

Displays the load-balancing hash result. You can view this information for one, two, or three levels of load balancing. This command can be used in two ways to get different load-balancing information based on the parameters:

• To get the load-balancing decision result for routed IPv4, IPv6, and other L3 traffic, use the following:

  show forwarding-options load-balance ingress-interface <interface-name> family <family-type> source-address <src-IP> destination-address <dest-IP> source-mac-address <source-mac-address> dest-mac-address <destination-mac-address> transport-protocol <transport-protocol> source-port <src-port> destination-port <dest-port> tos <TOS>

  Note:

  source-mac-address and dest-mac-address are only supported on BT based line-cards on PTX10001-36MR, LC1201 line card, LC1202 line card, PTX10004, PTX10008, PTX10016, PTX10003, and PTXX10002-36QDD.

  You can use this command when all the packet header details are available.

• To get the load-balancing decision result for raw packet dump files, use the following:

  show forwarding-options load-balance ingress-interface <interface-name> family <family-type> packet-dump <pkt-dump>

  You can use this command when the packets in the traffic are complex to be described by the 5-tuple.

Note:

• This feature is not supported for multicast flows and L2 packets.

• The maximum size of the raw packets entered on the CLI is 1500 bytes.

Options

interface-name	Ingress logical interface.
family-type	Layer 3 family “inet/inet6”.
src-IP	Source IP address. IP address of the source device/node/interface from where these packets are emanating
dest-IP	Destination IP address. IP address of the eventual intended node for which these packets are destined for
source-mac-address	source MAC address. MAC address of the node/interface hosting the Source IP address (PTX)
dest-mac-address	Destination MAC address. MAC address of the Ingress interface on which this packet is being received on this device (PTX)
transport-protocol	Transport layer protocol “tcp/udp”.
src-port	Source port (0 – 65535).
dest-port	Destination port (0 – 65535).
TOS	Type of service field (0 – 255).
pkt-dump	Raw packet dump in hexadecimal without '0x'. The hexadecimal code of packet information must start from the L3 header (IPv4/IPv6) to the end of the packet. It should be less than 256,000 characters in length.
