Link Aggregation Issue on NetGear M4300-28G

Hello,

I have a m4300 and I am trying to set up link aggregation for ports 19-22. I have removed those ports from all vlans, and made sure only the LAG is on a vlan. I get an error stating "Failed to create port channel member" whenever I try to add the ports to the LAG. A screenshot of the LAG configuration will be attatched will the error message showing. I am trying to configure this LAG group to connect to our NAS.

 

  • I found the fix, I had port mirroring set up on those ports for sniffing. I disabled mirroring and then I was able to add them to the LAG.
