So did you actually have an answer to my original question - lol.

Most of my new servers that I'm building have two ethernet ports, so I'm configuring Link Aggregation on my Switch. I don't know if I could of done this off the WAN Interface, but I connected a cable from the X4 port interface on the sonicwall to my switch and configured a sub interface, along...
