What is cienaCesExtAggRole?

Reports whether this chassis is currently acting as the primary or backup node for this MC-LAG, or has no defined role. This tells an admin which chassis is actively forwarding traffic for the MC-LAG at this moment versus which one is standing by, essential context before performing any maintenance on either chassis. If this reads backup(2) on the chassis the admin is about to reboot, that reboot won't interrupt the MC-LAG's active traffic since the primary node is handling forwarding.
