Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques that include selecting a member port of an aggregation bundle by evaluating utilization of paths, within a router, to member ports of an aggregation bundle. In one example, this disclosure describes a method that includes receiving network data to be output through an aggregation bundle having a plurality of member ports; identifying local member ports; identifying non-local member ports, each of the non-local member ports being reachable from the receiving line card over a path through the switch fabric to a different one of the plurality of line cards; identifying available non-local member ports by determining, for each non-local member port, whether the path through the switch fabric has low utilization; and selecting a member port by applying a hashing algorithm to a group that includes each of the identified available non-local member ports.
