Hello, > xl0 and fxp0 both need to have the same mac address I have configured the same mac on both cards. My lagg0 looks like this: lagg0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 options=9<RXCSUM,VLAN_MTU> ether 00:01:02:20:24:ef inet 192.168.1.104 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 media: Ethernet autoselect status: active laggproto failover laggport: fxp0 flags=0<> laggport: xl0 flags=5<MASTER,ACTIVE> When I disconnect the cable from xl0, the network connection dies, and my lagg0 looks like this: lagg0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 options=9<RXCSUM,VLAN_MTU> ether 00:01:02:20:24:ef inet 192.168.1.104 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 media: Ethernet autoselect status: active laggproto failover laggport: fxp0 flags=4<ACTIVE> laggport: xl0 flags=1<MASTER> Still, if I start pinging anything from that host, the connections comes back to live: lagg0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 options=9<RXCSUM,VLAN_MTU> ether 00:01:02:20:24:ef inet 192.168.1.104 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 media: Ethernet autoselect status: active laggproto failover laggport: fxp0 flags=4<ACTIVE> laggport: xl0 flags=1<MASTER> What might be the problem with that setup?
