7.Click the OK button.

8.Provision the LAG Trunk IP Address, Mask and Gateway. The TCP/IP settings for each port including “Local Area Connection” and “Local Area Connection 2” are disabled. The LAG Trunk IP networking parameters must be set on the newly created VLAN vlan100, ID: 100 adapter (Figure 43).

5. Verification Steps

1.Generate a constant ping request from each client to each Intel adapter equipped server and verify that ping traffic load shares on the ingress and egress of each LAG. Check the switch statistics to verify load sharing (Figure 44).

Note: In Figure 44, the base port has more traffic because STP is enabled by default and all STP PDU’s are sent on the base port only. Observe that the unicast packet count is equally distributed for the client PC ping requests.

2.Disconnect one member from each Hunt Group (LAG) and verify that traffic continues to flow between all machines.

3.Reconnect the previously disconnected member from each Hunt Group (LAG) and disconnect the opposite member this time. Again, verify that traffic continues to flow between the two machines. If STP is enabled, there may be some loss during convergence delay. To avoid this, disable STP on the switch ports.

4.Using available statistics and LED link indications, verify that load sharing occurs between across the two members of the huntgroup (LAG).
