A storage system determines source addresses, and destination addresses in a storage system, for network traffic. The storage system determines a hash algorithm, from a plurality of hash algorithms. The hash algorithm is to be used across the source addresses for load-balancing the network traffic to the destination addresses. The storage system determines that the hash algorithm more closely meets one or more load-balancing criteria than at least one other hash algorithm, of the plurality of hash algorithms. The storage system distributes the network traffic from the source addresses to the destination addresses in the storage system, with load-balancing according to the determined hash algorithm.
