An information handling system is provided. The information handling system includes systems and methods for implementing a multi-chassis link aggregation group (MLAG) in a network. This may be achieved by connecting at least two switches to a plurality of servers, with at least one logical bridging device and at least one MLAG configured in between the network and the plurality of servers. The at least one logical bridging device may be associated with the at least one MLAG. The system may include at least one MLAG per logical bridging device, but may include more MLAGs than logical bridging devices.
