M4300 LACP 802.3ad with
Hello, I'm currently changing my switch with M4300-96X. I've a problem with my NAS LACP (802.3ad compliant). My NAS (QNAP) is setup in trunking mode IEEE 802.3ad with all his ports (4x 1G base-T & ...
Can I check... we want to set this up also.. we have 2 x 10G ports that already work between QNAP and Netgear with ALB trunking on the qnap nas enabled. So the ports and connections all work.
Is the setup in the previous post picture the only things you need to set up to make it work. Pick LAG ID and select the ports to join it.
QNAP say this about hash mode..
Select the desired hash policy for 802.3ad trunking:
Layer 2 (MAC) – Compatible with all managed switches (default).
Layer 2+3 (MAC+IP) – Not supported by all switches. If supported, offers better performance (recommended).
So which hash mode applies to these options. Layer 2+3 apparently better performance but which mode is this on netgear.. enhanced?

The port selection is in place, look on Joris-DLabs post up here. The point it the dynamic LACP LAG does not come up for the OP when I remember the thread right.

The M4300 (and M4250, M4350, ...) are almost certainly able to take the L2+3 data stream on a static and a dynamic LCACP LAG. Similar settings available on the LAG controls 8-)
