LACP on ESXi is only supported on distributed switches, if you''re using a regular virtual switch and port group, ESXi doesn''t support LACP. Meraki doesn''t support a static port-channel either, it only

There are different methods of link aggregation such as static link aggregation, dynamic link aggregation (802.3ad LACP), etc. VMware vSphere (ESXi) supports link aggregation at the virtual switch level.

You can create multiple link aggregation groups (LAGs) on a distributed switch to aggregate the bandwidth of physical NICs on ESXi hosts that are connected to LACP port channels.
