I forgot that the lacp needed to be sent by the switch/bridge. But if you had a tun/bridge in between the nic and the switch that should also not be forwarding the LACP frames. > So lets say two machines got a bunch of nics and want to have a direct > connection between them (no switch ) > To get Failover(cable is long and may be unplugged) + Load balancing > (need the bandwith) > over the links, trunk0(LACP) is not an option .

I don't see what any of these buy you in your virtualized environment though, surely you would need to deal with this in the VM host ? > I guess VLT Force10 answered that a few years ago. > That's a proprietary protocol for running link aggregation from e.g. a server to multiple switches.
