I'm trying to configure OpenBSD with trunking using LACP but I can't
seem to get it to work correctly. I have an HP Procurve 5304XL connected to a
Dell 1750 with an Intel PRO/1000MT QP (82546EB). I am unable to get trunking
and LACP to work together for some reason. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
HP Ports B1 and B2 are connected to Dell 1750 em0 and em1
HP Ports B3 and B4 are connected to Dell 1750 em2 and em3
