Creating an Eth-Trunk Interface and Configuring It to Work in Manual Load Balancing Mode

You can add physical interfaces to an Eth-Trunk interface working in manual load balancing mode. All the member interfaces are in the forwarding state and load-balance traffic.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run interface eth-trunk trunk-id

    An Eth-Trunk interface is created and the Eth-Trunk interface view is displayed.

  3. (Optional) Run portswitch

    The Eth-Trunk interface is switched to the Layer 2 mode.

    Physical interfaces can be added to an Eth-Trunk interface regardless of which mode the Eth-Trunk interface works in. If the Eth-Trunk interface needs to work in Layer 3 mode, skip this step and go to the next step.

  4. Run mode manual load-balance

    The Eth-Trunk interface is configured to work in manual load balancing mode.

  5. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.
