HP recommends 4-tuple hash based steering when both the following are true:

  • When the server host uses only a few listening ports, and there are a large number of connections to the server.

  • The server host has a large number of CPUs (exceeding 16).

    In this situation, destination-port based steering does not work optimally, and it is recommended that you use 4-tuple hash based steering instead.
