Any chance this can be done through an async event rather
than by polling?

You are correct.

In ng_fec.h you have kept the same cookie number as ng_iface
which means that messages for these two can be confused.
You should use a differnt cookie
by tradition we use date -u +'%s'
to generate or change the cookie.
Since the first 3 commands you have a

There's a IEEE standard these days for link aggregation. 802.3AD if I'm not
mistaken. W

I've tried this with 4.2-RELEASE on a single PIII-500 with 128 MB RAM and
2 fxp0 Interfaces. It was attached to a Nortel Baystack 450 running a 2

The crock in these trunking schemes is all the trouble and effort expended
to avoid re-ordering frames across the trunk bundle. This is why you
see things like the hashing techniques so that an individual flow of
traffic doesn't get reordered because it always is serialized over the
a single pat

Welcome to netgraph.. I hope it was not an unpleasant experience..
Suggestions and complaints are definitly eccepted with pleasure.
E.g. Was the differnce between 4.x and 5.x too much of a pain.?
(it was needed for SMP)
I will be making a backport of SOME of the added functionality
of 5.x to 4.x

This is a call for testers for a netgraph module that can be used to
aggregate 2 or 4 ethernet interfaces into a single interface. Basically,
it lets you do things like the following:
