Abstract
A method for load balancing in a communication network having a plurality of link aggregate groups includes receiving a data unit at a first one of the plurality of network devices associated with a first one of the plurality of link aggregate groups, applying a hashing function to the data unit to generate a first hash value, where the first hash value identifies a communication link in the first one of the plurality of link aggregate groups, receiving the data unit at a second one of the plurality of network devices associated with a second one of the plurality of link aggregate groups, and applying the hashing function to the data unit to generate a second hash value that is distinct from the first value, where the second hash value identifies a communication link in the second one of the plurality of link aggregate groups along which the data unit is to be communicated.
