Hey Guys,
I’m on version 11.3 U3.2 and the LACP isn’t working across Chelsio ports. When I go to lag them together one of them says “none”. I’m not sure if that’s a problem or not. I have a super micro server chassis.
I’m using a dell s4810 switch. And I configured the port channel to use LACP active.
The port channel never comes online when configured with LACP mode active. However if I configure the Lag with just a static port channel (not LACP) then the port channel comes up, but I can’t ping or see the NAS.
If I assign both interfaces on the freenas chelsio card an IP and then connect them to standard access ports on the dell switch then both links work and I can ping and mount the NAS. So my SFPs are working and it’s not a hardware problem.
So then I started to get desperate and I tried round robin, load balancing methods instead of LACP on the freenas. These methods would allow the port channel to come up, but the performance was less than 1 gig. By the way I’m trying to link two 10 gig ports.
Anyways, I’m thinking I must be doing something wrong or the newest freenas build has an LACP bug.
The below article is how I setup the switch to use all three methods, LACP static, active and passive. None work with LACP enabled on the freenas.
