1. A method comprising:
in a network that includes a plurality of nodes, obtaining information indicating multiple paths in the network and a branch node in the network; and
for the branch node in the network:
simulating a hashing algorithm employed by the branch node that is used to select one of multiple egress interfaces of the branch node;
providing as input to the hashing algorithm, entropy information; and
obtaining from the hashing algorithm, interface selection results produced by the hashing algorithm based on the entropy information; and
evaluating performance in the network based on the interface selection results.
