As others have noted, there can be implementation specific issues that you can't necessarily predict but most typically when I hear "odd vs even" discussions, usually the caveat is not a trunk but a redundant connection. Putting three links on router A and two links on router B obviously doesn't work well. On Tue, May 15, 2018 at 10:15:19AM -0500, Aaron Gould wrote:
I have (2) 10 gig links bundled in a lag to my upstream internet provider. and we need more internet capacity. Is it cool to add a third 10 gig to my existing 20 gig lag internet connection? I'm asking since I heard in the past something negative about odd numbers of lag members. .but I also have heard that it's not a big deal. Let me know please -Aaron
