Hi, Vladislav.

No. I can have two active ports on a subscribers facing link-group with
SE100. Actually, on Access Link-Group default value of maximum-links option
is 1. I've just set up "maximum-links 2" in link-group configuration and
both links now active.


link-group clients access economical
 encapsulation dot1q
 qos hierarchical mode strict
 dot1q pvc 11
  bind interface test test
 maximum-links 2
 lacp active

[local]Redback#sh la actor
                Port    Port          Oper     Recv          Seln
Lg-id   Port    State   Priority      key      State         State
----------------------------------------------------------------------
276      2/1    0x3f    32767         276      exchg         active
276      2/2    0x3f    32767         276      exchg         active
34       2/3    0x3f    32767         34       exchg         active
34       2/4    0x3f    32767         34       exchg         active


But now here is the next problem: despite the fact that all links are
active, traffic from SE100 goes only from one port:

[local]Redback#sh port counters 2/3
Port            Type
2/3             ethernet
packets sent       : 17074              bytes sent         : 24840050
packets recvd      : 159561             bytes recvd        : 34816978
send packet rate   : 7.03               send bit rate      : 82212.17
recv packet rate   : 64.37              recv bit rate      : 114917.48
rate refresh interval : 60 seconds

[local]Redback#sh port counters 2/4
Port            Type
2/4             ethernet
packets sent       : 79                 bytes sent         : 9796
packets recvd      : 171527             bytes recvd        : 12099656
send packet rate   : 0.03               send bit rate      : 33.06
recv packet rate   : 70.40              recv bit rate      : 39056.37
rate refresh interval : 60 seconds 


"protect-group" option on link-group set to "round-robin" (by default).

Perhaps this is because of the lack of payload.
