Apparatus, and an associated method, for facilitating communication of data in a multi-stage communication network. A hash value generator generates hash values. A seed value is used in the generation of the hash values. As traffic flow conditions change, feedback is provided, and the seed value is adjusted or changed. And, the manner by which the hash values are generated is changed, responsive to the change of the seed value. Redistribution of traffic flow is provided, thereby to reduce, or compensate for, unbalanced traffic flow in the network.
