show forwarding configuration
show forwarding configuration
Description
Displays the configured selection criteria for ECMP (Equal Cost Multi Paths) routes and load-sharing group ports and the hardware table
settings, including the configured and current hash algorithm and dual-hash
settings.
Syntax Description
This
command has no arguments or variables.
Usage Guidelines
The output of this command displays the following information:
- Configured hash algorithm—The hash algorithm configured
on the switch. After the configuration is saved and the switch is rebooted,
the switch uses this hash algorithm.
- Current hash algorithm—The hash algorithm currently used
by the switch.
- Configured dual-hash setting—Whether the dual-hash
feature is configured ‘on‘ or ‘off‘ on the switch. After the configuration
is saved and the switch is rebooted, the switch uses this setting.
- Current dual-hash setting—Whether the dual-hash feature
is currently ‘on‘ or ‘off‘ on the switch.
- Dual-Hash recursion level—The current dual-hash
recursion level; default is ‘1.‘
- Sharing criteria—Current selection criterion used for
ECMP route sharing as well as for load-sharing groups. Specifies which Layer
3 and Layer4 information is used in the sharing hash algorithm. For more
information, see the description for the configure forwarding sharing
[L3 | L3_L4] command.
- Group Table Compression—Whether the group table
compression is currently ‘on‘ or ‘off‘ on the switch.
- Switching mode—Whether the switching mode is currently
set to ‘cut-through‘ or ‘store-and-forward.‘
- Fabric flow control—Whether flow control fabric
configuration is set to ‘auto‘ or ‘off.‘
It is possible for the values of the configured and the current hash, or the
configured and current dual-hash settings to be different. For example, if you
modified the hash algorithm and have not saved the configuration and rebooted the
switch, the values might be different. In this situation, the switch also displays
the following message:
NOTE: A save and reboot are required before the configured hash will take effect
Example
The following command displays the hardware forwarding algorithm
configured on the switch:
