      @stephenw10 said in LACP not working:

      Are you able to test a lagg to a single switch rather than cross-chassis?

      Or even just connect the ports individually outside of a lagg to be sure they come up as not blocked?

      Steve

      i havent done that yet, need to drive to the Datacenter to try,

      i remeber it working with one cable untill i connect the second cable.,

        It seems like a loop that the switch is blocking then.

        I would expect to see something in the switch logs.

          i've been kicking my head down to find the log of the switch.
          cannot seems how to see them.
          what are the commands for brodcad switches to see the logs?

            On the ICX6450 I have it's show logging at least to get basic logs. I've never tried to get more.

              Thank you Steve,
              i know about the logging but thought i need seperate log check for the LAG only.

                Hmm, well I'm not familiar with that peer info mismatch but it doesn't look good!

                I would think if you can resolve that it will come up OK.

                Looks like this: http://docs.ruckuswireless.com/fastiron/08.0.80/fastiron-08080-l2guide/GUID-6298B5C2-295F-476A-9B99-E465BC0E4B0D.html

                You have custom peer info values configured causing the mismatch?

                  Thank you Steve
                  what do you mean with You have custom peer info values configured causing the mismatch? on the pfbox or switch?

                      i always thought it on the switch, i dont understand about the mismatch value thing,
                      but i need to do some research to see if i can fix it.

                        It's possible to set the peer-info value in the switch and that will break the lag if it doesn't match what the peer is actually sending.
                        Without any peer-info set it accepts the first info it sees as dynamic.

                        Check the lag config on the switch.

                          Thank you Steve,
                          to be honest i am a Cisco guy so dont know how to do this peer-info.
                          as i understand i have to run this command on the lag ?

                          peer-info sys-mac 609c.609c.609c sys-pri 10 key 29999

                            Hmm, interesting. That doesn't match this:

                            priority=4,id=e839.3511.faab,key=0

                            Also unclear how the ports there appear to have a different priority set.

                            What you are seeing appears to be the Brocade end MAC also.

                            This is not something I've ever had to deal with either. 😉

                                  I just spoke with our ISP and they thing the Pfsense is running a strict mode and we have to disable it on the lag.
                                  I tried this command

                                  net.link.lagg.0.lacp.lacp_strict_mode

                                  but it s comes back command not found.

                                    It's now global so use:

                                    Is the switch not yours then?

                                      on the system>>tunnel I've created net.link.lagg.0.lacp.lacp_strict_mode and value 0
                                      I've created the runnable file and applied value 1, after I've run the command to change it to 0 using the command line but it didn't change it to 0.
                                      running the command

                                      [2.4.5-RELEASE][admin@244dev.stevew.lan]/root: sysctl net.link.lagg.lacp.default_strict_mode=0

                                      would overnight the system tuneable?

                                      the LACP on the switch still shows blocked unfortunately

                                        The switch should be in active mode by default too so strict LACP should still allow the interface to come up. It is possible to set it to passive mode but I don't think yours is.

                                          do I have to do something to force the LAGG to come online ?
                                          this the LAG config on the switch.

                                          1/1/1      Up      Blocked Full 1G    1     No  141  0   609c.9f4b.808c  WAN1
2/1/1      Up      Blocked Full 1G    1     No  141  0   609c.9f4b.808c  WAN2

                                          and log on the switch

                                          I come some forum which they said to run those commands

                                          > sysctl net.link.lagg.default_use_flowid=0 
> sysctl net.link.lagg.0.use_flowid=0 
> sysctl net.link.lagg.1.use_flowid=0

                                          can you advies wither to do this won't crash a production firewall.

                                          thank you

                                            Reviewing this there seem to be some differences in your early replies here.
                                            The lagg has a different MAC and seems to be connected to the same switch...

                                            Are you 100% confident on these are connected to the correct ports?

                                            Those values are defaults as far as I know so that should make no difference.
                                            What I have here:

                                            [2.4.5-RELEASE][admin@7100.stevew.lan]/root: sysctl net.link.lagg
net.link.lagg.default_flowid_shift: 16
net.link.lagg.default_use_flowid: 0
net.link.lagg.failover_rx_all: 0
net.link.lagg.lacp.default_strict_mode: 1
net.link.lagg.lacp.debug: 0
