I just setup my FreeNAS 8 (x64) server. The hardware is a NetApp StoreVault S500 (OnTap died and I could not get it reloaded, FreeNAS seems to have worked! yay!). I am at the console trying to configure a LACP aggregate trunk back to a Cisco switch with several VLAN interfaces to host backups for a multi-tenant environment. I can manually create them by dropping down to the shell and everything seems to work as expected, but when I try to go through the menu or the web GUI, it doesn't work so well. When I reboot, I lose my manual config so I need to get it working through the menus.
I have reset to the factory default and from the console menu I chose to make a link aggregate. I go through, set it for lacp, add bge0 and bge1, and it seems to take it. Then I go to add the VLAN interfaces and it doesn't show up. I checked edit interface and it doesn't show up there either. I did go to the shell and run /etc/rc.d/netif restart and it did finally show up (if I recall correctly) but I still cannot get it to recognize the lagg0 interface as a valid option for setting up VLAN's on.
I'm fine with setting things up through the rc.conf file or at the command line, but I need the settings to stay persistent. In version 8, I can't find through the GUI how to edit the rc.conf file to make the settings persistent. The only option I have found is to have a startup script or something on permanent storage that is called and runs the commands after a reboot which seems very clunky to me.
Am I missing something or is this a bug? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
