GS724T V2 How to configure a LAG pair

Question

Hello I have a GS724T V2 the product specs and docs state that it is capable of LAG and LACP and I need to configure 2 ports as a LAG pair and connect them to my ESXI 6.7 U3 server.

I cannot see any LAG config options in the Web UI.

How do I configure 2 ports to operate as an aggregated 2Gb link?

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers

Spart

Start here https://www.netgear.com/support/product/GS724Tv2.aspx#docs&nbsp;and look around what was available on these Gigabit Ethernet switches.
&nbsp;
Not aware there was any kind of bonding functionality available back then. No idea where you discovered the features mentioned.

Clearly states:

- Port Trunking - Manual as per IEEE802.3ad
Link Aggregation

But no information as to how to configure it.

So just enable a trunk group and select the ports and thats it?&nbsp;So example. These 2 ports are connected to the vswitch in ESXI 6.7

That didn't work. It caused weird issues on the network.&nbsp;ESXI does load balancing on the pair of connections and link failover if one of the links fails.Some kind of mismatch going on.&nbsp;Still looking for an answer.CheersSpart
