Enabling LACP on Mac Pro

Hi. How do i enable LACP on the mac pro? I have set it up on the switch but if i plug the second ethernet cable into port 2 on the mac pro, it will give it a different IP address. I think i am doing it wrong, so how do i set up LACP on the mac pro running Mac OSX SERVER

Cheers

Hi Nathaniel, if you go into the port configurations of your selected location and select new, the bottom option should be Link Aggregate, and once selected you should be able to select the network interfaces you want to link.

Cheers
