Device bays represent the ability of a device to house child devices. For example, you might install four blade servers into a 2U chassis. The chassis would appear in the rack elevation as a 2U device with four device bays. Each server within it would be defined as a 0U device installed in one of the device bays. Child devices do not appear within rack elevations, but they are included in the "Non-Racked Devices" list within the rack view.

Just like normal devices, child devices have their own platform (OS), role, tags, and interfaces. You cannot create a LAG between interfaces in different child devices.
