METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR LOAD BALANCING IN NETWORK SWITCHES |
摘要 |
A forwarding engine in a network device selects one or more groups of multiple egress interfaces of the network device for forwarding packets received by the network device. An egress interface selector in the network device selects individual egress interfaces within the one or more groups selected by the forwarding engine. The egress interface selector includes a table associated with a first group of multiple egress interfaces, wherein elements in the table include values indicate individual egress interfaces in the first group. When the forwarding engine selects the first group, a table element selector of selects an element in the table to identify the individual egress interface for forwarding the packet. |
