Extreme switch LACP to Ubuntu Bond

Hi

I have a 2 x Ubuntu systems that will be utilised as Frontend Load Balancers. I have configured the internal VRRP between the two servers with Keppalive D successfully. Now I need to configure the netplan yaml file with the Bond to 2 x Extreme switches. What is the best way to configure the LACP bond on the extreme switches please?

Hello,

Yes, a single LAG from one device that goes to 2 EXOS switches is an MLAG topology.

You can find an MLAG config guide here:

Hi Gabriel,

Many thanks for the reply and that certainly helps, however, I missed an important point in my question (apologies, I have only just noticed I ommitted this), as I have two servers (let's call them server-a and server-b), each with 2 x 10gbps ports available, and 2 extreme switch stacks (let's say stack-a and stack-b) then I need 1 x Server-a 10gbps port to stack-a while server-a 10gbps port 2 goes to stack-b. The same on the other server.

For the above redundant scenario, would I need MLAG with LACP?

Thank you
