Upgraded to pfSense 2.6 now I get "Interface stopped distributing possible flapping"
-
So I updated pfSense from 2.5.2 to 2.6 via the GUI, that seemed to go ok, then I noticed that all the gateways were down.
Inspecting the console I noticed that I was getting an error message stating igb2, igb3, igb4.,igb5 Interface stopped distributing possible flapping. These 4 interfaces are all in a LACP lagg from my pfSense box to my switch. This error doesn’t come up in 2.5.2.
Tried doing a clean install of 2.6 and restoring the config but the same error pops up.
Presumably it has something to do with the LACP/LAGG but that has been working without any issues for several versions of pfSense. Not totally sure how to resolve this. I could do a manual rebuild but that will take a considerable amount of time … Any ideas ??

For anyone interested, I think I have stumbled upon a possible solution outlined here my switch has a choice of an LACP or Static LAGG, so I’m assuming that the Netgear LACP is not the same as the FreeBSD active mode LACP.
I won’t be able to test out the solution until the weekend, in the event someone else has the same problem and applies the solution it would be handy to know the result.

After testing out the entry in the tunables it didn't make any difference.
net.link.lagg.0.lacp.lacp_strict_mode
My lagg was on 0 so that entry ought to be correct.
Any ideas how to address this ?
