On FreeBSD 11
man lagg(4)
says:
The driver currently supports the aggregation protocols failover (the
default), lacp, loadbalance, roundrobin, broadcast, and none.
with
roundrobin Distributes outgoing traffic using a round-robin scheduler
through all active ports and accepts incoming traffic from
any active port.
If the three ports are needed for sending, shouldn't this work ?
