The only thing I can think of is that you'd probably want the members of a LAG group to always have very similar performance characteristics (capacity, latency, ect).  That's pretty easy with a dedicated lambda/fiber but may require some thought in shared transport environments - for example you'd want to ensure one member couldn't take a longer path and incur a lot more latency than other members.  But that's just traffic engineering...

We haven't had any requests for such things, but I certainly wouldn't be scared of doing them.

Ok, Reid responded, but he's the only one.  Anyone else use LAG to connect for Ethernet circuits?

Subject: [MICE-DISCUSS] LAG use

I've been working with our state's telco coop to enhance our Ethernet circuit redundancy.  (This is not for Internet circuits, but Ethernet circuits like wireless backhaul).  The coop doesn't do a lot of LAG today, except for large customers that have purchased many circuits.  Since our transport gear has that capability and we have the ports we'd like to do it, too.  To help bolster our case, we're looking for examples where tier 1/2 carriers do LAG with their customers.

Can anyone on this list share (on or off list) some examples)?

Frank
