Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for aggregating ports in a centralized software-defined network (SDN) environment. An example system receives data transfer requirements associated with data communication to a second device; generates an aggregated switching model based on at least the data transfer requirements; and configures, using an SDN controller, an aggregated port to facilitate the transfer of data to the second device based on the aggregated switching model. The aggregated port includes one or more data lanes adapted to handle data traffic; one or more ports operatively coupled to the one or more data lanes, wherein the one or more ports are aggregated using an aggregated switching model; and a unitary interface operatively coupled to the one or more ports and adapted for external connection.
