LACP interface configuration from console
«

I have a couple of machines I want to turn into firewalls with opnsense. They have 4 NICs each, which I have configured on my switch into two LACP groups.
The only way I see to do LACP is to configure it from the web interface, which I can't get into until I setup networking from the console.
Is there a way I can configure LACP before the initial web configuration?
I tried doing it manually from the shell, but the web server still didn't seem to respond. I'm guessing there is an additional configuration for the web server that would need to be done afterwards.

Hi there,
This isn't trivial. There are two options, well three options:
(1) Prepare the config elsewhere, get it via USB stick into the system to /conf/config.xml, reboot the firewall.
(2) Use a simple LAN assignment and plug in a laptop, it gets a DHCP and 192.168.1.1 will be the GUI. Add initial LAGG connectivity from there.
(3) Adding LAGG support to the console. We don't have the internal resources for that and it would probably take longer to materialise than (1) and (2).
Cheers,
Franco
