(Optional) Configuring Trunk Load Balancing Functions for Layer 3 Multicast

To implement better load balancing for Layer 3 multicast traffic on trunk member interfaces, configure optional trunk load balancing functions.

Usage Scenario

If multicast traffic is sent out through trunk interfaces, configure some optional load balancing functions to adjust load balancing on trunk member interfaces.

Pre-configuration Tasks

Before configuring optional trunk load balancing functions for Layer 3 multicast, specify outbound interfaces as trunk interfaces for multicast traffic.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run trunk multicast load-balance hash-mode multicast-member

    Multicast group- and trunk sub-interface-based multicast load balancing is enabled for hash-mode route selection.

    This configuration implements better load balancing for multicast flows that belong to the same multicast group but have different sub-interfaces of the same outbound trunk interface.

  3. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.
