The lower segment to which the network device having A belongs
I am sorry dosanko, but I think you stand corrected here, because Aが所属するB means A belongs to B, and not the other way. So in this case it is not that the lower segment belongs to the network device, but the network device belonging to the lower segment.
Your sentence would have been correct had the Japanese sentence been
Aを有するネットワーク機器に所属する下位セグメント.
Your sentence would have been correct had the Japanese sentence been
Aを有するネットワーク機器に所属する下位セグメント.

Should have known it was a patent! The complex phrase using both the を and が structures of these する verbs makes this one a bit tricky. Very hard to get this into clean English due the ambiguity of the relative pronoun (which).
My English could be cleaned up more, unfortunately I have to go! I will set the confidence as Low, and hopefully someone can find a better way to phrase that.
