Usage
Information
Because this command calculates based on a Layer 2 hash algorithm, use this
command to display flows for switched Layer 2 packets, not for routed packets
(use the show ip flow command to display routed packets).
The show port-channel-flow command returns the egress port identification
in a given port-channel if a valid flow is entered. A mismatched flow error occurs if
MAC-based hashing is configured for a Layer 2 interface and you are trying to
display a Layer 3 flow.
The output displays three entries:
• Egress port for unfragmented packets.
• In the event of fragmented packets, the egress port of the first fragment.
• In the event of fragmented packets, the egress port of the subsequent
fragments.
NOTE: In the show port channel flow command output, the egress port
for an unknown unicast, multicast, or broadcast traffic is not displayed.
The following example shows the show port-channel-flow outgoing-port-
channel number incoming-interface interface source-mac address
destination-mac address
• Load-balance is configured for MAC
• Load-balance is configured for IP 4-tuple/2-tuple
• A non-IP payload is going out of Layer 2 LAG interface that is a member of
VLAN with an IP address
