Hello all, I got an issue that I haven't delt with before. note we HAVE done this scenario before just with diff radios and it worked.
The Setup.. we have a 3/4 mile long radio shot to one of our towers that we wanted to increase bandwidth to as well as give it some redundancy. So we bought 2 links of bullet5's and 2 pac wireless 2 foot dual pole dishes. ( and yes the output DBM is set to EIRP max with the dishes. ) We get the link up the radios work awesome. -28 to -30 dbm strength. in 54mbps mode. Speedtest on both links shows 26 mbps per radio. I add in the switches which one is set active for the LACP link on ports 22 23 and 24 port 22 is the old backhaul which is a simple cisco 1242 bridged radio link port 23 and 24 are the bullets. ( same on both switches btw ) the other switch is pretty much in default mode, as per HP's config example. I enable the switch ports for the bullets to allow them to link up the lacp and it works fine for a moment then the arp flood from hell happens. Devices all over my network stop responding for long periods of time.random customers stop passing traffic. Nothing I do gets me past this point. A more in depth look at the network for this link for you. Border-Router -> Extreme layer3 switch -> Core router -> HP2624 Switch -> Packetshaper 4500ISP -> Extreme layer3 switch -> hp2524 (lacp) -> Cisco + Bullet5's --- Cisco + Bullet5's -> HP2524 (lacp) -> Canopy CMM -> Various AP's. I don't need the Cisco backhaul anylonger however it would be nice to maintain as backup. (Which BTW is linked up at 54mbps as well.) Also I can't seem to ping any devices in the LACP link after they connect. Anyone have any ideas why this is going on? and how to fix it?
