[AusNOG] How to setup something like LACP across two switches

[simon at attwell.net]

Tony,

I think spanning tree is often misconfigured or not configured and then gets blamed when it does what it’s supposed to do.

For the OPs three switch problem, STP (preferably Rpvst+ or similar) is a simple and cost effective approach.

Sure there are other solutions like MEC or vPC but they might require replacement of existing hardware. 

I’m just saying that it’s an option.

Regards

- Simon
