mikrotik CRS and switch based LACP

Fri Jul 07, 2017 3:33 am

After the years and various updates the CRS switches have gotten, do they finally support LACP on the switch chips?
So far i see 3 lines, the CRS125,CRS 226, and CRS336. When i check routerboard page i find the CRS226 missing, is there a reason for this because it seems like mikrotik is ashamed of the switch if it isnt displayed as i only see one variant. I currently have the CRS226 with 24 ports and 2SFP+.

As far as I know there is no support for switch based LACP on CRS125, there may be on CSS326 & CRS317 but only on SwitchOS

What's new in v2.1:

*) added support for LACP in CSS326 & CRS317;
But I'm not sure if this is switch based LACP support.

The CRS226 has now been superseded by the CSS and CRS 326 (swos and ros/swos optional), not because they are ashamed of them. The CRS series are brilliant as a switch, it's the fact that they support Ros and were marketed with L3 capability that the expectation was they'd perform like a CCR with a meagre price tag,
