ASR 920 | IOS 16.9.5 | Etherchannel Load Balancing Issues

Hi All,

 

I have been having some issues with LACP/Port-channel Load Balancing on a 2 Gigabit etherchannel on an ASR920 4-port and ASR920 24-port.

 

Both of which are running IOS XE 16.9.5. I have tried setting up the Port-channel load balancing and leaving it default (src-mac) and gone through all the other types of load balancing and tried a couple of combinations of each on the individual routers, but mostly I have tried keeping the same on both sides of the port-channels.

 

Here are my configs for each side:

4-port (simulates the edge)

interface Port-channel3
 description LAG to Transport 920 Ports
 mtu 1998
 ip address 11.12.1.90 255.255.255.252
 no ip redirects
 no ip unreachables
 no ip proxy-arp
end

interface TenGigabitEthernet0/0/3
 description lag to transport te0/0/13
 mtu 1998
 no ip address
 lacp port-priority 32601
 channel-group 3 mode active
end

interface TenGigabitEthernet0/0/2
 description lag to transport te0/0/12
 mtu 1998
 no ip address
 lacp port-priority 32600
 channel-group 3 mode active
end

Here is the 24-port:

interface Port-channel3
 description LAG to Edge 920 Ports 2 & 3
 mtu 1998
 ip address 11.12.1.89 255.255.255.252
 no keepalive
end

interface TenGigabitEthernet0/0/13
 description lag to edge te0/0/3
 mtu 1998
 no ip address
 lacp port-priority 32601
 channel-group 3 mode active
end

interface TenGigabitEthernet0/0/12
 description lag to edge te0/0/2
 mtu 1998
 no ip address
 lacp port-priority 32600
 channel-group 3 mode active
end

I am pinging across the IPs from the edge to the transport's /30 on a public that I am hosting from the edge side. I am hosting a DHCP for public's on the edge that can ping the public (these are not the real IPs in the post), but they do have readability for my testing. 

 

 

I am generating about 650Mbps of traffic accross the gi0/0/0 link that I am connected on via the edge router that I wish would split into the two active etherchannel members, but it will only go along one or the other. 

 

Any advice is welcomed!
