Hi,

It all depends on the hardware platform you are running , on 3560 you will
have more options :

Syd_Loc(config)#port-channel load-balance ?
  dst-ip Dst IP Addr
  dst-mac Dst Mac Addr
  src-dst-ip Src XOR Dst IP Addr
  src-dst-mac Src XOR Dst Mac Addr
  src-ip Src IP Addr
  src-mac Src Mac Addr

and on 3550 platform you will only have the following options:

BAC(config)#port-channel load-balance ?
  dst-mac Dst Mac Addr
  src-mac Src Mac Addr

Cheers,
Dan
