Hello,

I recently bought one of these for my NSX homelab and am currently trying to set up LACP with the ESXi hosts but seem to hit a dead end on the switch side.
When I follow the manual over here: http://www.tp-link.com/us/faq-991.html it seems pretty straight forward, but it doesn't create the actual LAG and it leaves an LACP without members (it says N/A)

Steps:
Go to Switch--LAG--LACP (Clean switch, no LAGs have been made yet)
Select ports: 9 and 11
Admin key: 2
Port priority: default (32768)
Mode: Active
Status: Enable
Press Apply

On the LACP tab, all settings apply but the LAG column stays empty (where it says LAG2 in the manual screenshot).
When I try to adjust settings on this newly made LACP I get: Link Aggregation Group ID is out of range.
On the Static LAG tab I can see the ports corresponding with the dropdown list LAG1
On the LAG Table tab I can see the LACP made, but it shows N/A for the members.

Please advise!

Hi TPTHZ,

Thanks for the suggestions, my vSphere environment was set up correctly.
I figured out what the problem was, however I have no clue why this was happening.

Instead of Admin Key value of 2, I used 10.
Apparently, everything below 10 yields me nothing but errors like I mentioned above, but no clue as to why an admin key below 10 would fail.

Anyway, I have created all the LACP's for the other hosts going from admin key 10 and up, they all connect instantly and the members are shown.
Problem solved.
