Does your network switch support LACP and has it been configured correctly?

Thank you for your reply
My working environment will be a smaller LAN, the switch is used in household type 8 port, will not have any configuration options. I have not yet used in the actual environment, but the first test in Virtualbox freenas 9.10 Conclusion is the LACP the above questions. The same approach with freenas 9.3 on all the smooth, I hope that through the question to find the problem and solve it!

Lacp is not working without managed switch. It requires port trunk group and active lacp on switch ports. Is it distributing packets with 9.3?

Also, why lacp on small 8port switch. Can you measure difference with 9.3 vs 9.10 performance on transfer?

I am currently in the testing phase of the above problems.
Test description:
1, VirtualBox environment installation freenas 9.3 test LACP can successfully access WebGUI.
2, VirtualBox environment installation freenas 9.10 test LACP and manually configure IPV4 can not access WebGUI.
The above test results is the question I want to ask. Why is that?

You've already stated that you do not have a managed switch. Therefore it's not possible to configure LACP. What you can do is set-up a failover in case one of your NICs or cables fail.

As stated, LACP is NOT going to work for you due to insufficient switch.
Please see this for more info: FreeNAS® 9.10 - LAGG & VLAN Overview
Test description:
1, VirtualBox environment installation freenas 9.3 test LACP can successfully access WebGUI.
2, VirtualBox environment installation freenas 9.10 test LACP and manually configure IPV4 can not access WebGUI.
Are you sure you trying to use LACP?

May be my English is not good, so rely on google translation meaning is not accurate.
According to your reply I probably understand that if I want to use LACP must be able to support the LACP switch, otherwise all interviews.

Yeah to actually be able to use/leverage LACP you need the hardware to support it. Based on what you told us, it does not appear that you do have the hardware and at most may actually have "Fail-Over" instead (which can be done on lesser switches).

I'm starting over with FreeNAS version 9.10.1-U4. I had LACP LAGG working under FreeNAS version 8.0.4 on same hardware (but smaller drives).

Using FreeNAS 9.10.1-U4, LACP LAGG is not working between HP 1820-24G switch and EXPI9402PTBLK NIC. Doesn't matter if I try to configure from console or web GUI. Tried active and passive settings on HP switch, neither works.

It worked fine with same hardware and FreeNAS 8.0.4

update: started over again with FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201506292332 and LAGG is configured and functional.
