LAG setup JGS524Ev2 and GS752TS kills network
Hi, I am attempting to create a 2 Wire LAG between a JGS524Ev2 and a GS752TS I am using ports 1 and 2 on each switch. I have created a LAG group for ports 1 and 2 on each switch. The JGS524Ev2 i...

Hi britesc,
Be reminded that the JGS524Ev2 switch only supports static LAG. On the GS752TS switch, a LAG interface can be either static or dynamic but not both.
Make sure that static LAG is set as the LAG type on the GS752TS. On the web-GUI, go to Switching > LAG > Basic > LAG Configuration then check the LAG type on ports 1 and 2.
Also, STP is not supported on the JGS524Ev2 switch. On the GS752TS switch, go to Switching > LAG > Basic > LAG Configuration then check if the STP Mode on ports 1 and 2 are disabled.
You may want to start from scratch by disconnecting all devices that are connected on both JGS524Ev2 and GS752TS switches. Then, configure static LAG then connect all devices to their designated ports on both JGS524Ev2 and GS752TS switches.
What is the current firmware version of the JGS524Ev2 switch as well as the GS752TS switch?

It appears to be working, I am testing each device in turn but I sense an increase in throughput / speed which is fantastic, plus I now have some resilience.
I will attempt to bring my other switches into the fold... so to speak.
I have a M4100 26G to add to the GS752TS and two XS716E to link together as the 10G backbone which should make server backups a dream. Then some smaller switches.
I get the feeling that the main salvation was unplugging all devices and methodically reconnecting, such as adding the pfSense router and interfaces first then moving onto the DNS, NTP, IPTV and then the NAS, SAN and lastly workstations and access points.
At this stage all apeears well so keeping everything crossed for a couple of hours.
Kins regards,
