Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a load sharing method and apparatus, and a board. The method includes: receiving, by a built-in forwarding unit, to-be-transmitted data; obtaining, by a management control unit, current load ratios of forwarding units; and if it is determined that a current load ratio of any forwarding unit of the forwarding units is less than a preset load ratio threshold, determining that the forwarding unit is a unit for forwarding the to-be-transmitted data, where the built-in forwarding unit and the management control unit are located in a same board, and the forwarding units include the built-in forwarding unit and another forwarding unit outside the board. The present invention can solve a problem of low data transmission reliability in an existing load sharing method.
