Well, isn't there MAC address reprogramming and such going on when one enables LAGG on an interface? -adrian ___ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-un

Hiya, I've spent a bit of time over the last week helping chase this stuff down. A big thanks to Intel and Verisign for chasing down these bugs and getting a fix into the tree so quickly! If you use ixgbe on -HEAD or -9 I highly suggest you nab these changes and give them a good thrashing. -adr

We have an iXsystems 1U server (E5) with an Intel 4-port ethernet NIC installed, model I350-T4 (manufactured May of 2013). We're trying to bind the 4 ports on this NIC together into a single lagg port, connected LACP to a distribution switch (Cisco 4900-series). We are able to successfully bind

Adding an address to a downed LAGG interface breaks it?

2013-08-01 Thread Newpol, Richard
All, We seem to have discovered a problem that occurs when adding an address (or alias) to a DOWNed lagg interface. After adding an address, when you try to bring the interface UP it can't reach the desired networks. Turns out that the problem occurs because the lagg driver silently passes the
