Hey guys, I have issues with establishing LACP link aggregation.

The GUI returns an error (see below) but the lagg0 interface shows up and is configurable if you ack the error message.
However the link never becomes active on an arista port-channel.

FreeNAS Version: FreeNAS-11.1-U4 (89e3d93bc).
FreeNAS adapter card is an Intel X520.


FreeNAS status error:
CRITICAL: May 4, 2018, 12:23 p.m. - These ports are not ACTIVE on LAGG interface lagg0: bxe0, bxe1. Please check cabling and switch


I've tried several settings and got arista support involved now. Any hint would be appreciated.


configuration on the Arista (already confirmed by Arista support):

You have a Broadcom NIC, it uses a Broadcom driver.
You might be dealing with a FreeBSD driver regression issue in version 11.1

I may not be correct in this assumption, the NIC could also be a
QLogic NetXtreme II family of Gigabit Ethernet controllers.
