Abstract

A networking aggregation link provisioning system includes a second aggregated networking device that is configured to provide a second portion of a link aggregation to a connected device, and a first aggregated networking device that is configured to provide a first portion of the link aggregation to the connected device. The first aggregated networking device establishes an inter-aggregated-networking-device link with the second aggregated networking device and, in response, synchronizes first aggregated networking device process(es) running in the first aggregated networking device with respective corresponding second aggregated networking device process(es) running in the second aggregated networking device. When the first aggregated networking device determines that the synchronization of the first aggregated networking device process(es) with the respective corresponding second aggregated networking device process(es) has completed, its causes the second aggregated networking device to enable the second portion of the link aggregation to the connected device.
