Re: Design reasons for LACP active versus on

Aside from what others have said, When I was configuring this a couple of
years ago, there were enormous problems with "HP teaming" drivers
themselves, and when they did finally work for EC, the LACP didn't work as
planned, and configured etherchannel was not coming up. So it was ON mode on
both ports leading to server anyway.
