Nexus 3064 - LACP issue with bandwidth

DeviC3

Level 1

Hello, I have Nexus 3064 and configured on it a lacp link with DCN switch.

Configuration is same on both switches. When I'm trying to set a speedtest (iperf) beetwen two Linux servers.

Links is 2x10Gb/s on both sides. On DCN side it shows me 20Gb/s bandwitdth but on Nexus side it shows BW as 20000000 Kbit and full-duplex, 10 Gb/s.

Iperf on Linux shows bandwidth as 5Gb/s and lacp didn't work. Below important Nexus Config

 

port-channel1 is up

Do you generate a single flow or multiple concurrent flows for the tests in iperf?

Hi, sorry for long time.

multiple flows from 2 different clients to 2 different servers, additionaly iperf is set with parameter -p 10 (paralel)
[client1] <-10Gbps-> [Nexus <-> DCN 2x 10Gbps LACP] <-10Gbps-> [iperf-server1]
[client2] <-10Gbps-> [Nexus <-> DCN 2x 10Gbps LACP] <-10Gbps-> [iperf-server2]
Everything in same subnet eg. 192.168.100.0/24 if this can make difference.
