Help with LACP

Hi,
I've been everywhere and can't seem to find help. I'm having an issue with setting up a LACP with 4 port nic card.

I setup my Cisco 3750G with port channel and LACP. I created the Lagg on FreeBSD and only 2 of the ports go active. Can someone help please? Also I'm using a HP NC364T 4 port network card.

Thanks
Code:
lagg0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
        options=9b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM>
        ether 00:e0:81:c8:e3:ab
        nd6 options=9<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED>
        media: Ethernet autoselect
        status: active
        groups: lagg  
        laggproto lacp lagghash l2,l3,l4
        laggport: em2 flags=1c<ACTIVE,COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING>
        laggport: em3 flags=1c<ACTIVE,COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING>
        laggport: em4 flags=0<>
        laggport: em5 flags=0<>

How did you configure the Cisco? And do em4 and em5 have an active status?
 
We need to know what the configuration looks like at each end.

As an aside, beware 4-port NICs. I bought two Intel PRO/1000 PT Quad Port Server Adapters to connect my ZFS server to my KVM server with 4 wires (back to back) using lagg/bond (in roundrobin mode, expecting 4 Gbit/sec) and discovered that the controllers flatline at 2 Gbit/sec gross. :mad:
 
I should be able to get you a Cisco LACP config, for IOS device, and maybe even 3750G. I didn't try but I imagine there are lots of configs posted online. Show us your FreeBSD and Cisco config please, as already asked.
 
This might be silly to suggest, but I recently ran into this ... did you ifconfig em4 up (same for em5) after creating lagg0?
