Lagg failover on FreeBSD 7.0 Dell 1950/Broadcom 5708 NICs
Having some issues using lagg on a Dell server with FreeBSD 7.0. Trying to set up the two onboard NICs in lagg failover mode. I can get the lagg configuration to load via rc.conf and everything on the surface to looks to be loading correctly. The configuration can be seen using ifconfig and I have a lagg interface with two NICs assigned to it. Yet when I go to simulate a failure by either uplugging the master/active NIC or downing the switchport its connected to, I lose connectivity to the box. If I do an ifconfig and run ping from the bsd server to net, the failover seems to work. Obviously not a good solution. I first would like to see if anyone can see something I am doing wrong in my configuration. The following is whats contained in my rc.conf file with regards to lagg:
cloned_interfaces="lagg0" ifconfig_bce1="UP" ifconfig_bce0="UP" ifconfig_lagg0="laggproto failover laggport bce1 laggport bce0 10.10.20.118 netmask 255.255.255.0" boot loader.conf entry (Although it seems to make no difference whether this is in here or not): if_lagg_load="YES" ifconfig output: bce0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 options=1bb<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING, JUMBO_MTU,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4> ether 00:1e:c9:ab:4c:76 media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseTX <full-duplex>) status: active lagg: laggdev lagg0 bce1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 options=1bb<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING, JUMBO_MTU,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4> ether 00:1e:c9:ab:4c:76 media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseTX <full-duplex>) status: active lagg: laggdev lagg0 lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 lagg0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 options=1bb<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING, JUMBO_MTU,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4> ether 00:1e:c9:ab:4c:76 inet 10.10.20.118 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.10.20.255 media: Ethernet autoselect status: active laggproto failover laggport: bce0 flags=0<> laggport: bce1 flags=5<MASTER,ACTIVE> Any input would be helpful. Thanks in advance. |
