ReadyNAS 3200 NIC teaming with Cisco Catalyst 2960-S
my hardware - ReadyNAS 3200
RAIDiator 4.2.21
NIC Teaming set to: Transmit Load Balancing
both NICs are connected to Cisco Catalyst 2960-S switch, cisco port config:
on the ReadyNas I have got an iSCSI target created with VMware ESXi 5 connected to it.
All seem to be working fine but I see considerable amount of dropped packets on the ReadyNAS NICs:
what is causing this? :cry: how can I fix it?

- Hmmm - also noticed this on my NFS setup. Will change some things around tomorrow to see if I still get those drops.
- Tom,
To reply, are you sure you have set up Teaming/ LAG correctly on switch.?
I don't support the Cisco switches, but if it were a Netgear switch, I would be saying to have
LAG ( Link Aggregation ) created, and the same LACP Protocol settings on both
switch and Teamed NAS ethernet ports.
