AFAIK, VMware has always required a distributed vSwitch for LACP, but the earliest reference I can find tonight is 5.1, though I believe it’s referenced the same way in the documentation of every version since then.

<span>I’ve seen it work with a standard vSwitch, for long periods of time even, and then the CAM table on a switch gets rebuilt (switch reload, power loss ...etc), then all hell breaks loose and you can’t get teaming to work again.</span><br>

<span>If those c220s are business editions and/or have the “free” license (non enterprise), then that’s likely a problem. You’d likely see evidence of this in the switch syslog (Mac flaps, possibly err-disable... etc).</span><br>

<span>What is the reason for suspecting you need to change the NIC teaming to active/passive?</span><br>

<span>Phones going into SRST mode (may be displayed as preservation mode on phones) is an indication the phone’s IP lost network connectivity to all the call control servers listed in the phone’s configuration (xml) file.</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>The delayed call setup could be due to the call traversing an unexpected/unoptimized network path, due to disruption in it’s connection to its preferred call control server.</span><br>
