Enhanced hashing for LAG member selection- (Personal notes:- look for hashing in more details on
google)
For example, to use XOR16 and include all of the fields in the 5-tuple to compute the link in the LAG
interface that the
packet is distributed to:
config system npu
set lag-out-port-select enable
config sw-eh-hash
set computation xor16
set ip-protocol include
set source-ip-upper-16 include
set source-ip-lower-16 include
set destination-ip-upper-16 include
set destination-ip-lower-16 include
set source-port include
set destination-port include
set netmask-length 32

or easily perform NAT on traffic. The limits in transparent mode apply to IEEE 802.1Q VLAN trunks
