Abstract
A device may receive network traffic for transmission in a campus network. The campus network may include a set of aggregation devices and a set of satellite devices. The set of satellite devices may be grouped into a set of satellite clusters of the campus network. The device may generate a packet header for the network traffic. The packet header may include an E-channel identifier (ECID) with a quantity of N bits (N>10) reserved to address a packet to a particular satellite device of the set of satellite devices and to a particular port of a set of ports of the particular satellite device. The device may transmit the network traffic using the packet header based on generating the packet header.
