Hi,
I need bonding LACP under CRS at wire speed (without CPU usage).
Is this posible actually? exists some web with examples?
I need a simple usage, for example:
input in ether1 and output in a ether2/ether3 bonding interface
Thanks
/interface bonding
add mode=802.3ad name=EtherChannel slaves="ether1 - SW1/0/17,ether2 - SW2/0/17,ether3 - SW1/0/18,ether4 - SW2/0/18,ether5 - SW1/0/19,ether6 - SW2/0/19,ether7 - SW1/0/20,ether8 - SW2/0/20" transmit-hash-policy=\
layer-2-and-3
Works great to my Ciscos… Seems (to my surprise) to balance out rather evenly as well. My CCR’s hardly breaking a sweat CPU wise.
ok!, thanks!
to my best knowledge, LACP is not supported by hw on the crs. to use /interface bonding, the packet must traverse the 1Gig link between the cpu and the switch chip, so you lose a lot more what you could possibly gain. CRS is limited PPS-wise on the CPU to max 240kpps, which tops around 300Mbps…
all you can do is bonding w/o any protocol (e.g ether-channel mode on), somewhere at /inter ethernet switch trunk
Uh-huh…

I need hw support on CRS… I need wire speed.
honestly, I am not clear if possible after read the posts…
CRS has hw support for LACP?
[quote=“savage”]Uh-huh…

crs =/= ccr
I do not understand 
,sorry
CRS has hw support for LACP? (yes/no is enough)
The CRS hardware CAN support LACP, but the functionality has not been implemented through the RouterOS software, so there’s no way to configure/control it.
No, CRS does NOT have hw support for bonding nor LACP.
thank you!
It has become very clear.
This is quite a big failing.
IF the chipset supports it mikrotik should implement the support in either routeros or swos.
Another very welcome feature would be virtual chassis and support for MCLAG.
