Enable Advanced Fabric Hashing
The Enable Fabric Hash option is used to enable advanced fabric hashing on a specified card and slot. It only applies to GigaVUE-HD4 and GigaVUE-HD8 nodes with traffic coming into PRT-H00-Q02X32 and PRT-HD0-Q08 line cards. For example, if traffic comes into two PRT-HD0-Q08 line cards and then is sent out to four GigaSMART engines on two GigaSMART cards, configuring advanced fabric hashing on both the PRT-HD0-Q08 line cards improves GigaSMART performance.
Advance Fabric Hash can only be enabled or disabled while in Chassis Table View. To enable or disable Advanced Fabric Hashing, do the following:
| 1. | Select Chassis in the main navigation pane. |
| 2. | Switch the Chassis page to Table View. |
| 3. | Under Cards, find the line card on which you want to enable fabric hash and select the card. The Fabric Hash field for the card indicates the current state of fabric hash. In Figure 334: Fabric Hash Disabled on a PRT-H00-Q02X32 Card, fabric hash is disabled on the selected line card. |
