Abstract: A network device determines whether the network device has a local link for a link aggregation group (LAG), and identifies, when the network device has a local link for the LAG, the network device as a designated forwarder for the LAG. The network device also identifies, when the network device does not have a local link for the LAG, a closest network device to the network device, with a local link for the LAG, as the designated forwarder for the LAG.

Abstract translation: 网络设备确定网络设备是否具有用于链路聚合组（LAG）的本地链路，并且当网络设备具有用于LAG的本地链路时，将网络设备识别为用于LAG的指定转发器。 当网络设备没有用于LAG的本地链路时，网络设备还识别到具有用于LAG的本地链路的网络设备的最接近的网络设备作为LAG的指定转发器。
