99% sure the switch is configured correctly.   I=92ve actually tried all =
the different combination of the switch supports, and can=92t seem to =
get them to sync up.  =46rom the pcaps, both the host and switch are =
sending the LACP packets =85 but it seems that the freebsd is just =
passing them through/up =85 almost like FreeBSD doesn=92t recognized =
them as LACP packets.=20

In looking a bit deeper on the pcaps in wireshark - the TP-Link=92s =
packet correctly labels the =93partner=94 systems to the super =
micro/freebsd box by port and mac address, however the FreeBSD response =
has all zeros for the partner systems mac and port.   So without looking =
at the logs on the switch, my guess is the switch correctly sees the =
FreeBSD box, however the FreeBSD box is not correctly recognizing the =
packets from the switch as LACP.=20

Feels like a single bit or flag in the switches packets that is not =
matching what FreeBSD is expecting.=20

I was hoping someone would have some insight before I start looking at =
each bit of the packets what=92s not aligned.
