We have LAG running on EX4200's today ... traffic is pretty much perfectly load balanced. Did I perhaps miss part of this conversation? ;)

We configured LAG's with LACP and our EX4200 couldn't load balance any of the traffic. While those links discuss how the box performs load sharing, it isn't actually configurable at all, nor does it work. The issue also affects the EX3200, but not sure about the rest of the EX family. We opened a case with JTAC and they confirmed that a hardware limitation means the switch doesn't actually do any kind of load balancing over LAG's. JTAC said there are some internal discussions to write software to "sort of make it load share", but that's not definite. We ended swapping the switches out with Cisco's instead, and got our load balancing working.
