I have a 4 port etherchannel configured to talk to a 4 port etherchannel on NETAPP server. The NETAPP server seems to be distributing traffic across all the links. The 4507 does not. It appears that traffic is going across only 2 of the for links
Port-channel10 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
Hardware is EtherChannel, address is c84c.759a.62e2 (bia c84c.759a.62e2)
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 4000000 Kbit, DLY 10 usec,
reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255
Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set
Keepalive set (10 sec)
Full-duplex, 1000Mb/s, media type is N/A
input flow-control is off, output flow-control is unsupported
Members in this channel: Gi6/17 Gi6/18 Gi6/19 Gi6/20

Currently using as my channel LB config - traffic to the server is from both vlan local to the server and not
EtherChannel Load-Balancing Configuration:
src-dst-port EtherChannel Load-Balancing Configuration:
src-dst-port
But have tried source IP, src-dst-ip

All you can really do is to play with the load balancing algorithim and choose the one that gives you the best balance. Are you sure all 4 ports are active in that etherchannel ? Verify with show etherc summ" .

Flows with the same src,dst,port will hash to the same link on an etherchannel. It is an expected behavior.
04-13-2012 01:29 PM
Understood, but the port channel is built to a server and I am sure there are more than two flows going to it. Unfortunately the 4507RE does not support netflow and won't be able to provide any flow statistics. I will try and get that info from the server team next week..
Thanks

Copy of the active server connections. Server IP is 69.38 and all clients connect via port 445. Is this a bug?

Can you post configuration portion from the logical interface (port-channel) and physical interface members?
As well as 'show etherchannel summary'?
05-26-2012 11:55 AM
From the Cisco side, It turns out the output counters on two of the 4507 switchports were not incrememting. Also, the NETAPP vendor identified a bad interface card which was replaced.
