LACP is in the restricted group forwarding mask. The Linux bridge allows many things to be forwarded, but STP, LACP and PAUSE are not allowed to stay conformant with 802.1 standard. The discussion has come up before on the mailing list, and so far each instance of someone wanting it turned out to be a mistake. |
