  • Patent number: 9419919
    Abstract: Techniques for configuring a virtual network device are provided. Embodiments identify a network device profile specifying a virtual link teaming domain. Upon receiving a network message advertising the virtual link teaming domain from a peer network device of the two or more network devices, on a plurality of links of the first network device, the plurality of links are teamed, based on the virtual link teaming domain, to create a first link bundle. Embodiments advertise a virtual link teaming identifier to a neighboring network device of the first network device. Here, the neighboring network device is configured to use the virtual link teaming identifier to bundle links between the neighboring network device and the virtual network device.
