I am running on a ASRock EP2C602-4L/D16 board and there is a dedicated BMC/IPMI port and 4 Intel LAN ports. However, I noticed that IPMI always seems to grab 2 IPs and showing there are 2 NICs associated. When I tried to configure LACP in FreeNAS, after adding all 4 Intel LAN NICs, it would kill my IPMI connection. I ended up having to reboot the server just to access the IPMI again, and what I saw was both NICs in IPMI also became bonded. Not quite sure why this is, but I did read somewhere that often LAN1 also has a channel that is allocated for IPMI. Can anyone advise on what is the best series of steps to get LACP working on all 4 LAN ports?
