Link Aggregation - Bundling of interfaces

[Willi]

Hey guys.

I am trying with Link Aggregation on 2 Dell 6248 switches.

I have 4 ports in the LAG 1 with LACPD Auto on Switch 1
Switch 2 performs well and is connected through, but it still only take 1 Gbit (I test from multiple machines to different servers on either end).

I put up a LAG on Switch 2, the connection dies.

Has anyone had any ideas on what is happening here?
As far as I can understand the Link Aggregation will work fine if I shall put it up on the first switch, but I would so benefit less from the one-way.

If I would benefit either way, it probably added up at both ends?

Give input!?

Do nothing to Dell switches.
Can not put them up at both ends of static to LAG?

I have read some guide, which moreover just forget "exit" a couple of times
However, I have found that my "LAG" is set up correctly, they are nonetheless "inactive" in Web.
(And do not run "shutdown" on them, as the gates that would be down also.

There was nothing wrong .. Ssshhh, "yes"

I had forgotten that my ports VLAN tags were not helpful in my port-channel.

Well, I just expect too much of my hardware, I think. Just like I expected it to auto-sense 2 links to the receiving switch was running "Link Aggregation"

But hey, it works now.
Tested and can now draw ~ 390MB/sec through the link
