Subject: LACP LAGG device problems To: freebsd-net@freebsd.org Date: Saturday, July 20, 2013, 10:04 AM Hi! Can anybody tell me, is there any plans to improve LAGG(802.3ad) device driver in FreeBSD? It will be greate to have a possibility to set LACP mode (active/passive) and system priority. Also there is no way to set hashing algorithm and master interface (port). And we can't see any information about our neighbor. The same function in Linux is named Bonding and it is much more better. I realy can donate some money to those who can make this improvements. Best regards. > _______________________________________________ Why are you using LAGG when 10g cards are like $350? It's not a peering protocol nor it is PTP; can you see your "peer" info on an ethernet? Bonding is a late 90s concept designed to connect 2 slow links to get higher speeds, back in the day when 100Mb/s was ambitious. The point of LAGG is that it's transparent; you can load balance traffic to multiple hosts or create a redundant link without having to have equipment running some special applications, or any special logic above the LAGG device. Describing how you are using LAGG (and why) might be better than just asking for "improvements".
