I'm using lagg(4) on some of our servers and I'm just wondering how the failover is implemented. The manpage isn't quite clear:
failover Sends and receives traffic only through the master port. If the master port becomes unavailable, the next active port is used. The first interface added is the master port; any interfaces added after that are used as failover devices.
What is meant by "becomes unavailable"? Is it just the physical link which needs to become unavailable to trigger a failover?
Yes. It seems you need lacp protocol described later in the manual.
