Correct answer & explanation

✓

Choose hash algorithm (src-dst-ip, src-dst-mac)

Configuration begins with selecting hash algorithm, then applying it globally, verifying on interfaces, checking load distribution, and finally adjusting if needed.

Variation 1. Drag and drop the steps of EtherChannel load-balancing hash configuration into the correct order, from first to last.

medium
  • ✓ A.Choose global load-balancing method (e.g., src-dst-ip)
  • ✓ B.Apply method using 'port-channel load-balance' command
  • ✓ C.Verify configuration with 'show etherchannel load-balance'
  • ✓ D.Optionally override per-interface with 'load-balance' command
  • ✓ E.Test hash distribution by sending traffic across bundle

Why A: The correct order begins with choosing the global load-balancing method (A) such as src-dst-ip. Next, apply the method using the 'port-channel load-balance' command (B). Optionally, override the method on a per-interface basis using the 'load-balance' command (D). Then verify the configuration with 'show etherchannel load-balance' (C). Finally, test the hash distribution by sending traffic across the bundle (E) to confirm proper load balancing.
