Configuring Per-packet Load Balancing Mode

By default, the load balancing modes of the traffic on control plane and forwarding plane are per-flow. You can configure the commands as shown in Table 10-1 to change the mode to per-packet.

Table 10-1 Configuration Guide for Per-packet Load Balancing Mode

Views	Command Format	Influence Range	Note
System view	load-balance packet { slot slot-id \| all }	On the forwarding plane, this command takes effect only on MPLS packets on P nodes. On the control plane, this command takes effect on the IP packets and MPLS packets sent by CPU.	Configures the per-packet load balancing mode for packet forwarding.
Interface view	mpls l2vpn load-balance packet	Inbound Martini/SVC VLL traffic of the interface	Prerequisites: a Martini VLL or an SVC VLL has been configured on the corresponding interface and a tunnel policy has been configured for the L2VPN. If VLL FRR is enabled on the interface, this command takes effect on both primary and secondary PWs.
Eth-Trunk interface view	load-balance packet-all	Inbound traffic of the interface	By default, Layer 3 Eth-Trunk interfaces carry out IP-based load balancing and Layer 2 Eth-Trunk interfaces carry out MAC-based load balancing.

On the control plane, this command takes effect on the IP packets and MPLS packets sent by CPU.

Configures the per-packet load balancing mode for packet forwarding.

Interface view

mpls l2vpn load-balance packet

Inbound Martini/SVC VLL traffic of the interface

Prerequisites: a Martini VLL or an SVC VLL has been configured on the corresponding interface and a tunnel policy has been configured for the L2VPN.

If VLL FRR is enabled on the interface, this command takes effect on both primary and secondary PWs.

Eth-Trunk interface view

load-balance packet-all

Inbound traffic of the interface

By default, Layer 3 Eth-Trunk interfaces carry out IP-based load balancing and Layer 2 Eth-Trunk interfaces carry out MAC-based load balancing.

Configuring Per-flow Load Balancing Mode

By default, the load balancing modes of the traffic on control plane and forwarding plane are per-flow. You can configure the commands as shown in Table 10-2 to change the mode to per-flow if the mode has been changed to per-packet.

System view	load-balance flow { slot slot-id \| all } or undo load-balance packet { slot slot-id \| all }	On the forwarding plane, this command takes effect only on MPLS packets on P nodes. On the control plane, this command takes effect on the IP packets and MPLS packets sent by CPU.	Configure the per-flow load balancing mode for packet forwarding.
Interface view	undo mpls l2vpn load-balance packet	Inbound Martini/SVC VLL traffic of the interface	Prerequisites: a Martini VLL or an SVC VLL has been configured on the corresponding interface and a tunnel policy has been configured for the L2VPN. If VLL FRR is enabled on the interface, this command takes effect on both primary and secondary PWs.
Layer3 Eth-Trunk interface view	load-balance src-dst-ip, or undo load-balance	Inbound traffic of the interface	By default, Layer 3 Eth-Trunk interfaces carry out IP-based load balancing.
