It refers to all of them, i.e. LAG, ECMP, and even the (hierarchical)
combination.  We can try and provide some clarification around that.  We
will add 802.1AX as a reference for LAG.  What would be a reasonable
reference for ECMP?  Would RFC 2991 suffice?

The reference that we have for sflow in the references section is the
"sflow Version 5" specification which is located at
http://sflow.org/sflow_version_5.txt.  We can update the reference to
include the URL.
