Name is different again on NetNSD you are looking for agr

If you use LACP the different OS's will interoperate with almost no 
effort. If you pick the right set of non-LACP options it should also 
work although it will be a bit more difficult.

LACP also has the advantage of being supported by pretty much all switch 
hardware.

You only need aggregation interfaces if you want to connect multiple 
ports on your router to a single switch.
