Connecting to multiple cloud instances in a telecommunications network

An apparatus comprising:

• an edge device including one or more processors and a communication interface coupled to the one or more processors, wherein the edge device provides communication between a cloud computing environment and a single port of a first device, and wherein the one or more processors are configured to perform operations comprising:
• receiving, from the single port, a first plurality of communication packets from the first device, the first plurality of communication packets associated with a first Virtual Local Area Network identifier, and receiving, from the single port, a second plurality of communication packets from the first device, the second plurality of communication packets associated with a second Virtual Local Area Network identifier, the first Virtual Local Area Network identifier associated with a first cloud computing instance in a cloud computing environment and the second Virtual Local Area Network identifier associated with a second cloud computing instance in the cloud computing environment;
• establishing a communication path between multiple networks and the cloud computing environment by connecting one or more networks to the single port of the first device by a Link Aggregation Group connection to an egress port connected to the second edge device of the cloud computing environment in accordance with the communication path, and wherein the single port receives or transmits packets from multiple networks that include the first Virtual Local Area Network identifier and the second Virtual Local Area Network identifier of packet streams from the first device;
• and
• routing, to a second edge device of the cloud computing environment, the first plurality of communication packets associated with the first Virtual Local Area Network identifier for connection to the first cloud computing instance and the second plurality of communication packets associated with the second Virtual Local Area Network identifier for connection to the second cloud computing instance.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon, the instructions executable by one or more processors of a computing system to perform a method for dynamically requesting a network resource, the instructions causing the computing system to:

• receive, from a single port, a first plurality of communication packets from a first device, the first plurality of communication packets associated with a first Virtual Local Area Network identifier, and receive, from the single port, a second plurality of communication packets from the first device, the second plurality of communication packets associated with a second Virtual Local Area Network identifier, the first Virtual Local Area Network identifier associated with a first cloud computing instance in a cloud computing environment and the second Virtual Local Area Network identifier associated with a second cloud computing instance in the cloud computing environment;
• establish a communication path between multiple networks and the cloud computing environment by connecting one or more networks to the single port of the first device by a Link Aggregation Group connection to an egress port connected to the second edge device of the cloud computing environment in accordance with the communication path, and wherein the single port receives or transmits packets from multiple networks that include the first Virtual Local Area Network identifier and the second Virtual Local Area Network identifier of packet streams from the first device;
• and
• route, to a first edge device of the cloud computing environment, the first plurality of communication packets associated with the first Virtual Local Area Network identifier for connection to the first cloud computing instance and the second plurality of communication packets associated with the second Virtual Local Area Network identifier for connection to the second cloud computing instance.
