The network device can operate a second LAG comprising the first LAG and at least a high-capacity link between the network device and the second network device. The capacity of the high-capacity link can match the combined capacity of the first LAG. The network device can determine the first and second control packets received at the first network device to be associated with the first and second LAGs, respectively, based on an indicator in the second control packet. The network device can then configure the first and second LAGs based on the first and second control packets, respectively."
