  • Patent number: 10148555
    Abstract: A LAG access node determination system includes directly-linked networking node devices are each directly linked to a networking switch device by respective links that are aggregated in a multi-chassis LAG provided by the networking switch device. An indirectly-linked networking node device is coupled between the directly-linked networking node devices and is not directly linked to the networking switch device. The indirectly-linked networking node device receives a first packet that includes a destination that is reachable through the multi-chassis LAG provided by the networking switch device, determines a first directly-linked networking node device of the plurality of directly-linked networking node devices that is coupled to the indirectly-linked networking node device by a first shortest path, and provides the first packet along the first shortest path to the first directly-linked networking node device in order to forward the first packet through the multi-chassis LAG.
