I don't have full context here, but AIUI this is about bundling 
different links together? If so, primary/secondary or main/secondary 
might work better than leader/follower, in my opinion. The latter 
implies more of a "one device follows another one" scenario, like for 
clocks.

Just my 2c. Ditching the horribly ambiguous master/slave terminology is 
a good chance to pick the replacement that best describes the situation :-)
