Hello,
As you see in netgear photo i have checked port 45 and 46,
Screenshot is taken in the 3pm, at 8-9 pm traffic is at 900mbps, im thinking about th3 future traffic,
Should it make traffic in both ports or after sfp1 goes full, sfp2 gets the other traffic?
Im getting confused for configurations on l2 l3 and srcmac dstmac vlan in netgear and mikrotik, is anything wrong in configuration?
Thank You

Still no reason, one GbE is sufficient for 900Mb/s.

Again, that's why I said the typical confusion: You will see that each direction is handled mainly by one port, and only once there is more traffic, the additional ports are used. It's in no way something like a link load balancing.
Config is for the transmit policy by switch only.
