Thanks for your reply.

[For example]
many clients -- Cat3560---etherchannel---Cat3550--- few servers

In this case, following configuration would work well efficiently ?

[Cat3560]
src-dst-ip" or "src-dst-mac
[Cat3550]
dst-mac

Hi,

options for etherchannel load balancing differs between 3550 and 3560.
There are more options for the 3560.

3550 only MAC based decisions

3560 ip or MAC based decision

src - dest based is used for many to few hosts

I would say it depends on the question.
