My switch firmware is 2.2.0.3 (January 2009 Release). Is it capable of handle 802.3ad?

Answer : Problem: Powerconnect 6224 link aggregation and Centos not working

It works now. The problem was the following:

/etc/modprobe.conf

options bonding mode=4

I had:

alias bond0 bonding
options miimon=100 mode=4 lacp_rate=1

Obviously, it is really wrong. You cannot set options of bonding if you do not refer to the module...
After change it, system must be rebooted.
