[Transfer speeds starts fine but then slows to a crawl?]

Hi, moving data to my unraid server over gigabit lan.  

 

I've tried from both qnap and from win10 with the same results.   Transfer starts fine at 105 MB/s but after a few minutes will slow to a crawl and show 1.04 MB/s or 710 KB/s 

 

I can't figure out why?

[802.3ad LACP bonding issue]

Hi, I did do that and was successful getting protocol 4 bonding enabled.  Strangely though, even though it's enabled on both the switch and the unraid box, it isn't functioning the way my qnap or win server bonds are.  i.e. I can never see bond0 throughput go over 1000 mbps - which I can on other devices regularly.

Hi,  that worked thanks!  So I finally have bond0 with eth0 and eth1 using protocal 4 (802.3ad) - but it isn't actually working on the switch, to the switch it appears they are still working in a backup mode.  Very odd.

[802.3ad LACP bonding issue]

Hi, thanks - I think you are right.  I've tried to reset using eth0 and eth1 - but now I've ended up stuck with 2 bond groups.

 

eth1 is on bond1 and eth0 is on bond0 and I can't seem to reset or delete bond1 so that I can join these together?

[802.3ad LACP bonding issue]

Hi,

 

I have one port eth0 that I'm not using (it's on the mainboard) and I have a 2port intel nic which I have plugged into a managed switch, where those two ports are bonded (switch has different modes such as src-dst-ip or src-dst-mac etc. ( I've tried both of those).

 

In unraid, I'm ignoring eth0 and setting eth1 and 2 to be bonded.  But when I try to set the bond to mode 4 unraid locks up (in fact any mode I select causes a long update) and ultimately reverts to mode 1 active backup.

 

Everything on the switch side seems fine (and I have 4 other bonds working fine).  Maybe it's because I have the unused eth0 and that is causing some confusion?

 

Thanks,
