The current IEEE std is https://standards.ieee.org/ieee/802.1AX/6768/
which is unfortunately paywalled.

The terms in standard are "Aggregator Client" for the ports used in the device
and "Aggregator Partner/Multiplexor" but they are not quite the same.

Probably going to use client and multiplexor as terms; but open for discussion.
