Port Load sharing

[Paul11]

After i enable Lacp .. port is not sharing. Utilization is high on Link 1 only.
I want to use load balance on both links.
Please kindly see the below output and advice thanks.

* I try L2 static, L3_L4 and LACP. all the same ports are not load balance. *

enable sharing 1 grouping 1,4

enable sharing 1 grouping 1,4 L3_L4

enable sharing 1 grouping 1,4 algorithm address-based L3_L4 lacp

Sorry my current active version is 15.3.3.5. 15.3.1.4 is on other partition. Thanks. Is it bug or firmware not supported? I do need your adivce on this. The links are in live production network.

What exactly exos do you have 15.3.1.4-p1-xx <-?

[Paul11]

Link1 is 82 % and Link2 is only 0.25 % We want to achive load balanced on link1 and link2 Really appreciate your help and advice Jarek.

[Paul11]

I use only one command same like you. But the both links are not load share as i mentioned above. Anyway how can i load balance on these port. Please advice

[Jarek]

Paul,

you set those commands on switch like bellow:
enable sharing 1 grouping 1,4
enable sharing 1 grouping 1,4 L3_L4
enable sharing 1 grouping 1,4 algorithm address-based L3_L4 lacp

or only :

enable sharing 1 grouping 1,4 algorithm address-based L3_L4 lacp

I have on my switches:

enable sharing 24 grouping 21-24 algorithm address-based L3_L4 lacp

# sh ports 21-24 utilization bandwidth

State Speed % bandwidth % bandwidth % bandwidth % bandwidth
