    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a switch capable of processing software-defined data flows. The switch includes an identifier management module and a flow definition management module. During operation, the identifier management module allocates a logical identifier to a link aggregation port group which includes a plurality of ports associated with different links. The flow definition management module processes a flow definition corresponding to the logical identifier, applies the flow definition to ports in the link aggregation port group, and update lookup information for the link aggregation port group based on the flow definition.

    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a switch. The switch includes a link aggregation database and a packet processor. The link aggregation database stores configuration information regarding a plurality of switches participating in a multi-chassis trunk. The plurality of switches includes the switch. The packet processor constructs a packet for a remote switch. This packet is forwardable via a logical connection. The packet includes a virtual circuit label associated with a second logical connection of a second switch. The plurality of switches includes the second switch as well.

    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a switch. The switch includes a link aggregation database, an arbitration module, a packet processor, and a logical connection management module. The link aggregation database stores information regarding a plurality of switches participating in a multi-chassis trunk. The plurality of switches includes the switch as well. The arbitration module selects a switch of the plurality of switches as an active switch based on the information in the link aggregation database. The packet processor constructs a packet for a remote switch forwardable via a logical connection. The logical connection management module operates in conjunction with the packet processor and constructs a message containing instructions for creating a second logical connection to a second switch of the plurality of switches.
