XG-7100 ix2 and ix3 interfaces
-
My first XG-7100-1U
From cli:
Valid interfaces are:
ix0 00:08:a2:12:b5:ee (down) Intel(R) PRO/10GbE PCI-Express Network Driver
ix1 00:08:a2:12:b5:ef (down) Intel(R) PRO/10GbE PCI-Express Network Driver
ix2 00:08:a2:12:b5:f0 (down) Intel(R) PRO/10GbE PCI-Express Network Driver
ix3 00:08:a2:12:b5:f0 (down)
ovpns1 ovpns1 (down)Is interface ix3 OK

It's the second interface in the internal LAGG, you can see it's using the MAC from ix2, so it appears differently. It's not necessarily a problem.
Are you actually seeing a connection issue?

Everything works, but I was a little bit worried about redundancy in LAGG. In your instruction there were driver loaded on both interfaces. This seems to be OK.

In the internal LAGG is configured as load-balancing, both links have to work. If one had failed you would be seeing connectivity issues.

OK. There is LACP available too. Does it have more redundancy in this case?
-
LACP has more redundancy but the internal switch only supports load-balanced lagg so you cannot use it for that link.

I can live with that. Thank you.
