Hi Scott,

I had tried to set it in /etc/sysctl.conf but seems it didnt work. But 
will I try again and report back.

The settings of the switch have not been changed and are set to LACP. It 
worked before so I guess the switch should not be the problem. Maybe 
some incompatibility between FreeBSD + igb-driver + switch (Juniper 
EX3300-48T).

I will update you after setting the sysctl setting. It seems to be 
"dynamic", I guess 0 reflects the index of LACP lagg devices. Can I 
switch off the strict mode globally in /etc/sysctl.conf?

Thanks for your help.

Regards
Ben

My original intention was for this to default to 0, but apparently that didn’t happen.  However, the fact that strict mode doesn’t seem to work at all for you might hint that your switch either isn’t configured correctly for LACP, or doesn’t actually support LACP at all.  You might want to investigate that.
