      Hi Guys,

      Is anyone familiar with those TP-Link Easy Smart Switches?
      I have spent a couple of hours and did not manage to configure the LACP and pass VLAN through it.
      TL-SG1016PE SW has very poor config settings (Screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/x5400fdzr45oar7/Capture.PNG?dl=0)

      The setup is as follows:
      2 NICs of the pfsense device configured as LACP LAGG.

      pfSense Device: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4-Ethernet-RJ-45-Lan-Ports-Mini-PC-Celeron-J1800-Dual-Cores-2-41Ghz-Pfsense-Firewall/32810774479.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.cWYeiY
      Switch: TL-SG1016PE

      Thank you in advance for the help!

        It seems that switch does not support LACP, only static LAG. You'll have to set up pfsense accordingly. ('Load balance' option IIRC)
