dladm and lacp

Hi,

i installed the e1000g driver on my t2000. now i want to use linkaggregation with dladm. I setup 1 aggregate with 2 interfaces, each interface is physically connected to another switch (2 cisco 6500 trunked).

The setup of the trunking with dladm was straight forward, but now i get this message in the log:

WARNING: IP: Hardware address '00:12:1e:15:67:8e' trying to be our address 10.0.0.130!

I didn't set up any LACP configuration now, because i couldn't find any suggestions on how to configure it. Can somebody tell what would be the best setup on the server (active or passive) and what has to be configured on the switches (active, passive, on).

Thanks

That means the switch doesn't recognize or isn't configured to handle the trunk. Packets from one side of the aggregate are being forwarded by the switch back to the other link on the machine.

I basically understand the "WARNING.." message. My question was about some best practice configuring the LACP mode setting on Server and Switch.Another thing is that i am able to configure Jumbo Frames on the e1000g interfaces but not on the aggregate i make from the interfaces
