Not according to this:

lab#sh etherchannel load-balance 
EtherChannel Load-Balancing Configuration:
        src-mac

EtherChannel Load-Balancing Addresses Used Per-Protocol:
Non-IP: Source MAC address
  IPv4: Source MAC address
  IPv6: Source MAC address

lab#

lab#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
lab(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

lab(config)#


The above is a 3560G.

The ME3750 does support MPLS, but not when doing 802.1AX
for hashing.

We have 6500's that hash on MPLS labels for 802.1AX.

Cheers,

Mark.
