Fabric Advanced Hashing
Fabric Advanced Hashing is used to enable advanced fabric hashing on a chassis in GigaStream stack links and GigaSMART groups. The Fabric Advanced Hash option lets you select the criteria for sending matching flows to the same destination port within stack links.
The existing gigastream hashing can be applied only to tool/hybrid/circuit ports. Fabric advanced hashing hashes traffic based on the ipsrc, ipdst, protocol, ip6src, ip6dst. You can also select the various fields to configure hashing on stack links.
Fabric advanced hashing applies to the following modules:
