Abstract:
Embodiments of this application disclose a data processing method and a device, so that a controller can also participate in a procedure of electing an active switch, thereby avoiding a problem in the prior art caused by a registration failure when an active switch determined by means of switch election registers with a controller, and improving active switch election efficiency. The method in the embodiments of this application includes: receiving, by a controller, registration requests of multiple switches in a same stack system, where the multiple switches include a target switch; and if the controller determines that the target switch meets a registration success condition, sending, by the controller, a registration success message to the target switch, and selecting the target switch as an active switch.

Claim (Index 19):
The switch according to  claim 17 , wherein the processor is configured to send a message to an another switch in the same stack system after determining the switch as the active switch, to indicate that the switch is the active switch, such that the another switch becomes a standby switch and stops sending the registration request to the controller.
