A network node (20) in a communication, network includes a plurality of ports (28A... 28E), at least a subset of which is grouped in a link aggregation (LAG) group (32A, 32B). The node includes packet processing logic (40), which is coupled to receive data packets having respective destination addresses that specify forwarding the packets to groups of multiple recipients through at least one of the ports and to process the data packets so as to forward only a single copy of each of the data packets via the output ports in the subset, while distributing forwarded copies of the data packets among the output ports in the subset so as to balance a traffic load within the LAG group.
