Hi Dejan,<br>
<br>
LAG hashing on any type of 7210 boxes is really very dependent on traffic type. I can assume that in your scenario 7210-A and 7210-B are pure LSRs. Also, if you mentioned BNG - it's very probable that you are using PWs between SR1 and 7210-C.<br>
<br>
According to the documentation in LSR role 7210 SAS-Sx have two options to hash LAG traffic:<br>
<br>
1. hash-1: by outer MACs of the Ethernet packets that encapsulates an MPLS packets. There is not enough entropy in your case.<br>
2. hash-2: by combination of ingress port ID, label stack (3 topmost labels) and dst IP address. But dst IP address will be used only if there is IP header right after MPLS header (so it won't be used in case of PWs).<br>
<br>
Looks like that the simpliest way to increase entropy in your case is to increase number of PWs. Also you can try to play with hash-labels, but I'm not sure that it's supported on SAS-Sx now.<br>
<br>
If my guess about your configuration is wrong - pardon me and please provide more details :)<br>
