    handbook/advanced-networking: update lagg protocols
    
    "fec" isn't a valid laggproto since 2015, so remove it along

 The first interface added to the virtual interface is the master port and all subsequently added interfaces are used as failover devices.
 If failover to a non-master port occurs, the original port becomes master once it becomes available again.

 === Configuration Examples
 
 This section demonstrates how to configure a Cisco(R) switch and a FreeBSD system for LACP load balancing.
