GUI option to configure layers for LACP hash
Added by Mat Clarke about 2 years ago. Updated almost 2 years ago.

Description
Currently when creating an LACP LAG interface it gets created with the hashing "lacp lagghash l2,l3,l4" not all switches support this LACP hashing so would be good to give users the option to configure this when creating LACP interfaces so they could select "Layer 2", "Layer 2 + Layer 3", etc

I am getting a syntax error in interfaces.inc at 1107 on boot up that drops pfsense to login prompt.
Are we missing a . in the code after "/sbin/ifconfig"?
mwexec("/sbin/ifconfig " escapeshellarg($laggif) . " laggproto " . escapeshellarg($lagg['proto']) . " {$lacptimeout} {$lagghash}");
The 2022 2/19 6:00 update should be pulled as it brakes installations.
I see it has been fixed via #12831

That only showed that the GUI option was there -- It still needs to be tested at the OS level to make sure the selected options are placed on the LAGG, get set at boot, and actually work as expected.

Ran through the various settings. Looks good. All passed basic pings to another host across the lagg.

While I agree this is a welcome feature addition it should not matter what the other side supports. This is for transmission only. The other side does not have to match and can, in fact, be set differently..
