      Hello, new to this forum.
      having a bit of trouble and I hope someone can help.
      I have 3 HP managed switches connected to 3 lagg groups in PFsense 2.4.5. all 3 uses LACP for the protocol.
      I'm not able to route traffic between the 3 lagg groups.

      when I'm on lagg0 I can't ping anything on lagg1 or lagg2 and the same problem from the other lagg groups. each lagg group has 2 ports each. The lagg group is setup correctly because the switch does show the firewall as a lacp neighbor. I can't even ping the ip address for the lagg interface on the firewall. If I'm plugged into the same lagg group then I can ping the interface for that lagg group but not the others.

      any help would be very much appreciated.

      Thank you in advance.

        Assuming they are in different subnets you should only need firewall rules on the assigned lagg interfaces to pass that. Nothing special.

          @stephenw10 that was my thought but I'm still not able to communicate across laggs.
          Any suggestions would be appreciated.

          Thx,

            You could post up these rules you created on the lagg interfaces.

            You stated you can not ping the pfsense IP of another interface?

            Lets say lagg1 is 192.168.1.1, and lagg2 is 192.168.2.1

            And your on a client on 192.168.1/24 say 192.168.1.100, and it can ping 192.168.1.1, and it uses pfsense (192.168.1.1) as its gateway? But can not ping 192.168.2.1?

            Lets see the rules you have on lagg1 interface.
