LAGG configuration

TrueNAS General
1

I converted my NAS from Core, on a home build server to Scale on an old Dell T-410. On Core I was able to easily configure my two 1 GB ethernet ports for LAGG, but I can’t get it to work in Scale. The Dell also has two 1GB ethernet connections. My Switch is already set up. Whether from the system Console or the web UI, whatever I do to the 2nd port (eno2) it sticks with DHCP. And both connections operate independently.

So what am I missing?

  1. create lagg interface, name it “bond0” - it must be named bondX!
  2. place unused port in bond0 interface
  3. connect unused port to switch
  4. make sure this configuration is saved
  5. remove IP address from first interface, place IP address on bond0
  6. test - possibly extending the timeout to e.g. 300, also clear the ARP cache on your management system
  7. if connection can be reistablished, save
  8. place formerly primary port in bond0, test and save
