Question before buying a Route10

Hi, I am thinking about buying a router 10, but I would like to know a few things that I could not find the answer online first.

  1. Does the router support IEEE 802.3ad (now IEEE 802.1AX) dynamic link aggregation on the 2 wan ports?

  2. I use DHCP to handout static IP based on MAC address. Is this supported? The small business has around 180 devices. Can I upload some sort of CSV with MAC,IP,mDNS_name to configure these static IPs?

  3. MAC address cloning for WAN. We have a static IP from our ISP, but it is attached to a MAC address. We want to set a custom MAC on the WAN ports, is this supported?

Thanks!

I’m waiting with bated breath for link aggregation!! I have 2 10G DAC cables connected to my core switch. One of them is off for now with anticipation…. It’s the only additional feature I need on Route 10!
