NOTE: You cannot separate LAG and ECMP, but you can use different algorithms across
chassis with the same d. If LAG member ports span multiple port-pipes and line cards, set
the d to the same value on each port-pipe to achieve deterministic behavior.
NOTE: If the hash algorithm configuration is removed, Hash d does not go to the original
factory default setting.
hash-algorithm ecmp
Change the hash algorithm used to distribute traffic flows across an ECMP (equal-cost multipath routing) group.

Syntax
hash-algorithm ecmp {crc-upper} | {dest-ip} | {lsb}
To return to the default hash algorithm, use the
no hash-algorithm ecmp
command.
Parameters
crc-upper
Uses the upper 32 bits of the key for the hash computation. Default:
crc-lower
.
dest-ip
Uses the destination IP for ECMP hashing. Default:
enabled
.
lsb
Returns the LSB of the key as the hash. Default:
crc-lower
.
Defaults
•
crc-lower
•
dest-ip enabled

Usage Information
The hash value calculated with the hash-algorithm command is unique to the entire chassis.
The default ECMP hash configuration is crc-lower. This takes the lower 32 bits of the hash key
to compute the egress port and is the “fall-back” configuration if you have not configured
anything else.
The different hash algorithms are based on the number of ECMP group members and packet
values. The default hash algorithm yields the most balanced results in various test scenarios,
but if the default algorithm does not provide satisfactory distribution of traffic, use this
command to designate another algorithm.
