Advanced Hashing

Both regular GigaStream and controlled GigaStream use advanced hashing, which lets you select the criteria on which the hash is based, such as source and destination IP address, source and destination MAC address, source and destination port, and

The following table shows some different advanced-hash examples for regular GigaStream. Note that the advanced-hash method usually combines multiple criteria.

 

Command	Description
(config) # gigastream advanced-hash slot 3/6 fields ipdst ipsrc	Sets an advanced-hash method for slot 6 in box ID 3 that distributes traffic based on matching IPv4 source and destination addresses.
(config) # gigastream advanced-hash slot 7/2 default	Sets the advanced-hash for slot 2 in box ID 7 to the default criteria.
(config) # gigastream advanced-hash slot 1 fields macdst macsrc	Sets an advanced-hash method on a GigaVUE TA Series node (which only has slot 1) that distributes traffic based on matching source and destination MAC addresses.
