25.7, 25.10 Legacy Series / lacp - lokout
May 01, 2026, 01:09:14 PM
while i'm a developer i'm newer to networking and setting up my homelab,
I have an older dell powerconnect 2748 and want to setup lacp from opnsense to the switch.

My first attempt was like I had lan assigned to bge0 so i can make configuration changes,
I created a lag group for my first nice igb0-3, and then assigned lan interface to lag group.
Also obviously setup lag on the switch ports 45-48, yet when i try a port or access the webui nothing.

My second attept was the opposite like i can setup lagg on my second nic bge0-3 and keep lan on its default interface igb0 -> for access al the time an threat it more like managment while my actual lan would be another network.

same thing create a new interface test enabled dhcp and assigned the lagg, my laptop (ubuntu 24.04) doesn't receive any dhcp or ip address for that matter. for a weird reason i can ping 192.168.1.1 which is quiet strange without an ip i turn off the wifi on my laptop and couldn't ping which is kinda strange since the isp's network in the house i totally another subnet anyhow the second setup doesn't work either.


I'm kinda stuck i don't know if the lacp is setup correctly and i forgot something stupid in opnsense or nothig is working at all.
opnsense is currently still on version 25.7.

So is my lacp setup correctly?
Why can't i access the webui in the first attempt or why can't i get an ip address?
