But= I'm Have you checked that Windows really did LACP in your case? Sounds like it was no real hardware stack, so probably Windos just activated RSTP. FreeBSD doesn't detect any LACP/RSTP configuration features, but windows does with some NIC verndor's drivers. -Harry P.S.: Sorry for that additional answer, just forgot it in my last email. --------------enigF43D9C6B09CD2D4AB4838903 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.18 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAlA97fEACgkQLDqVQ9VXb8gMgACgzrjGi0TNwuxFSZaAp07dGDhA EgEAmwYtrpmvKeSb9EMzoDDLvZK8LjTF =5bB2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enigF43D9C6B09CD2D4AB4838903--
