Netonix Forums

Hello,

I have been struggling to get VLANs to work on bonded interfaces. I have a Mikrotik Cloud Core router connected to our Netonix switch with a common bonded interface. That works great with untagged traffic. When I try to assign a VLAN ID of 111 as a VLAN interface attached to the bonded interface on the Mikrotik and set the Netonix similar to SIRHC's "This works well for us", I can't get VLAN traffic to pass. I have posted the applicable MT code below with Netonix screenshots. Port 3 on the Netonix is plugged into a laptop with the IP of 10.50.0.13. My test is to ping 10.50.0.1. This DOES work if I use a non-bonded connection between the MT and the Netonix. Netonix firmware is 1.38, MT firmware is 6.35.2.

Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!

/interface ethernet

tx-flow-control=on
set [ find default-name=ether6 ] l2mtu=1590 rx-flow-control=on \

/interface bonding

Scott, are you still working on this? I tested this configuration between two Netonix switches and it worked ok, so in general it should work. According to the screenshot the Netonix believes the LACP link is running (both ports are Active), maybe check if the Miktrotik agrees.

I do have a Mikrotik around here somewhere, although its not a Cloud Router, so if you are still having problems with this I can try to dig that out and give it a try.

Eric,

Thanks for the reply. I have been working on this LACP bonded connection between two different routers, a CCR and Hex, was having problems and read that that both ethernet links need to be the same speed. I wasn't getting that, but will be retesting; I may have a bad cable. Once that is confirmed, I will be removing the Hex and testing the Netonix to the CCR. I use bonding now between the CCR and the Netonix, just not with VLANS and layer 2 routing. That is my goal. I also have a CRS which I may test as well. I want to figure out which side is failing the layer 2 routed configuration between the CCR and Netonix.

I will update this post, hopefully this weekend after I make some of these changes/tests.

Thanks so much for the reply!

Scott

Eric,

I am working correctly on a single Mikrotik CCR router to switch interface. When I move to a bonded LACP interface, the VLANs stop passing traffic.

Yes, would you mind trying on your end with a Mikrotik router to the Netonix switch?

I think my above configuration should be complete for your testing.

Regards,

Scott

I think you missed a step on the Mikrotik. This is what I had to do on mine (RB2011UiAS-RM) to get it working.

In this setup I had my laptop (configured for vlan 111) on ether3. ether4 and ether5 are the LACP ports going to the Netonix switch which is configured as you have shown above.

I used the GUI to configure it, but I believe these are the equivalent CLI commands.

/interface bonding
add mode=802.3ad name=bonding1 slaves=ether4,ether5

/interface vlan
add interface=ether3 name=eth3-vlan111 vlan-id=111
add interface=bonding1 name=bonding1-vlan111 vlan-id=111

/interface bridge
add name=bridge-vlan111

/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge-vlan111 interface=eth3-vlan111
add bridge=bridge-vlan111 interface=bonding1-vlan111

Eric,

Activating Multicast on the Ports tab did indeed fix this issue which is now closed on my end.

Thank you very much!

Hello, it is possible to make a LACP between CCR and a netonix
I have the CCR in another place a PTP with airfiber in the other end I have to Netonix
I need to increase more bandwidth at that point I plan to place another parallel link it is possible to add it as well CCR ===== Netonix

I am not 100% sure what your asking, a diagram and more details would be nice, but used the "SEARCH FEATURE" to see if there was ever any discussions on LACP and wireless and these posts and many more popped up:

Read the above posts and try some more searches and see if the answer you need is already out there answered.

Yes, LACP works between a CCR and a Netonix.

Hello, thanks for answering

Case 1

Could you please tell me an idea how the configuration should be in mikrotik and in Netonix

I have two options for this to place netonix on both ends
Currently I have a link with airfiber 5x I will put the NXN to increase more bandwidth

Case 2
I also have another scenario that I need to do link aggregation

Point A point B point c

Airfiber U <---> airfiber U <----> airfiber U

Airfiber 5x <---> Airfiber 5x <---> Airfiber 5x


I plan to use 3 netonix to do this link aggregation
What would be the best way to do the wireless link aggregation
