LACP (LAG) issues with a TL-SG3424P
Model :
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :

I'm having a problem with enabling LACP on my switch. When I first started attempting this setup I had a NAS with 4 Ethernet ports and a server with 2 Ethernet ports. I configured the NAS to trunk all 4 ports, and the NAS stated I
needed to enable LACP on the switch which I did. I bonded the 2 ports on the server and set up the switch ports properly. I then tested the setup by moving a 20 GB file, something I had done before the configuration to see what the
difference would be like. I didn't notice a huge improvement and in some cases it was slower. After some testing, I thought it might be the switch so I upgraded the switch to the current firmware. TL-SG3424P_V1_130620 is the firmware
I am currently using. Now, if I enable LACP on the ports I lose connectivity to any devices on the ports that have LACP enabled. It doesn't matter if they are the NAS or the server. All connectivity is lost. If I put a laptop on the same
switch with a piece of software which uses multicast to detect the NAS it fails. All ports on the switch are on the default (1) VLAN. I have no configuration other than that. When I upgraded the firmware it blew out the config on the device
so I had to start with a clean slate. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. The server is DL160G5 running Xen Server 7.0. The NAS is a QNAP TS-453U-RP 4 Bay. Cheers,
disco
