link aggregation - bundling 2 lagg interfaces together

2011-02-04 Thread Damien Fleuriot
Hello list, I have a firewall with 2x Intel pro dual port cards. On Intel A , port 1 goes to switch 1, port 2 goes to switch 2 On Intel B , port 1 goes to switch 1, port 2 goes to switch 2 I have created the following 2 lagg devices using LACP: lagg0 = A1 + B1 lagg1 = A2 + B2 This works fin
