Dear all, I've configured the following link aggregation in failover mode (below the interfaces configuration).
em0 is the master/active interface, so if the interface goes down I'm expecting em1 take all the traffic.
The problem is when I setup em0 as down:
[root@freenas] ~# ifconfig em0 down
lagg0 interface will activate em1:
laggport: em1 flags=4<ACTIVE>
laggport: em0 flags=1<MASTER>
But I loose all the connections... Seems failover doesn't work, but why???
