I disagree, I believe option D) Route based on physical NIC load is better as it distributes the load evenly across all physical NICs.

I think the best option is A) Route based on IP hash because it provides good load balancing and redundancy.

C, Route based on originating port ID. It's the most fun-sounding option, and who doesn't love a good port ID-based load balancing scheme?

I'm going with B, Route based on source MAC hash. It's a tried and true method that ensures consistent routing for each client.

Option D seems the most logical choice since it's based on physical NIC load. That way, the traffic is distributed evenly across the NICs.

I think Route based on IP hash is the way to go. It's a Nutanix best practice and it provides redundancy by load balancing across the available NICs.
