Zusammenfassung:A data unit is received at a network device associated with a link aggregate group. An initial key is determined based on information included in the data unit. Another key is generated based on a first field of the initial key and a second field of the initial key. A hash function is applied to the other key to generate a hash value. A communication link in the link aggregate group is determined based on the hash value, and the data unit is transmitted over the communication link.
