802.3ad/Link Aggregation fails to negotiate the same aggregator id on all bonded interfaces
Issue
- When the bonding interface is enabled, it will not operate at all or operate properly for a short period (20 seconds) then disconnects (lasting 10 seconds).
- The bonding interface disconnects every 30 seconds repeatedly until the switch marks the interface as suspended.
- Changing the LACP rate to fast on the host and switch does not correct the issue.
Environment
