      I was having a play trying to set up my single switch link to a LAGG, Created the new LAGG and tried to move VLAN 9
      to the LAGG, it didn't work, so i deleted them.

      If I do an ifconfig I still see the following:

      lagg0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
      description: OPT1
      options=e120bb<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,JUMBO_MTU,VLAN_HWCSUM,WOL_MAGIC,VLAN_HWFILTER,RXCSUM_IPV6,TXCSUM_IPV6>
      ether 00:08:a2:0a:9d:c7
      inet6 fe80::208:a2ff:fe0a:9dc7%lagg0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x17
      inet 172.16.1.100 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 172.16.1.255
      laggproto lacp lagghash l2,l3,l4
      laggport: igb2 flags=0<>
      groups: lagg
      media: Ethernet autoselect
      status: no carrier
      nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
      lagg0.9: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
      description: NORD
      options=600003<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,RXCSUM_IPV6,TXCSUM_IPV6>
      ether 00:08:a2:0a:9d:c7
      groups: vlan
      vlan: 9 vlanpcp: 0 parent interface: lagg0
      media: Ethernet autoselect
      status: no carrier
      nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
      lagg0.9.9: flags=8003<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
      description: NORD
      ether 00:00:00:00:00:00
      groups: vlan
      vlan: 0 vlanpcp: 0 parent interface: <none>
      nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>

      lagg0.9 & lagg0.9.9 also appear as parent interfaces in the Lagg - > Edit page and Available Network Ports on the Interface -> Assignment page.

      What's the best way to remove them, i did a roll back pre change.

        Mmm, that's interesting. lagg0.9.9 is a QinQ interface, did you mean to create that?

        If they don't exist in the config you can just remove them at the command line with ifconfig. You would need to start with lagg0.9.9 and then it's parent lagg0.9 etc.
        Or just reboot.

          Enabled OPT1.

          Created LAGG0 and added OPT1.

          Tried to move vlan 9 off its current interface LAN / igb0 to LAGG0, it failed.

          Tried again and it still failed, I think thats when lagg0.9.9 was created.

          I was trying to move the VLANS over to the LAGG and then add LAN to LAGG0.

            @stephenw10 A reboot seems to have sorted it.

              Ah:-

              https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/recipes/migrate-assigned-lan-to-lagg.html

              "Do not edit the existing tags and change the parent interface, it will cause problems with the interface assignments. Always create new tags, switch the assignments, then remove the old tags."
