Abstract

This disclosure is related to devices, systems, and techniques for using an aggregation device to manage satellite devices that are coupled to host devices. For example, a system includes a set of satellite devices providing switching functionality and an aggregation device configured to communicate with an orchestrator of a wide area network (WAN), where the aggregation device serves as a master switch and is coupled to the set of satellite devices via a set of cascade ports. The aggregation device is configured to detect, using a port extension service virtual network function (VNF) executing on the aggregation device, each satellite device of the set of satellite devices coupled to the aggregation device and send, to the orchestrator, data indicating the satellite devices as respective sub-systems within a logical switch comprising the aggregation device and the set of satellite devices.
