Correct answer & explanation
Exchange LACP system priority to elect active side
LACP first exchanges system priority to determine which side is active, then exchanges port priorities to select which ports bundle, next negotiates the operational key, then forms the bundle by synchronizing parameters, and finally the port channel interface becomes operational. This order follows the LACP state machine as defined in IEEE 802.3ad.
