TUNNEL ENDPOINT GROUP RECORDS FOR INTER-DATACENTER TRAFFIC

摘要

Some embodiments provide a method for an edge computing device in a first datacenter that implements a logical network gateway for processing data traffic for a particular LFE between the first datacenter and multiple other datacenters. For each particular other datacenter, the method stores a record that maps logical network addresses for DCNs connected to the particular LFE and operating in the particular datacenter to a group of TEP addresses corresponding to logical network gateways that handle data traffic for the particular LFE between the particular datacenter and the other datacenters, including the first datacenter. Upon receiving a data message for the particular LFE from a host computer in the first datacenter, the method uses a destination address of the data message to identify one of the groups of TEP addresses. The method encapsulates the data message with one of the TEP addresses from the identified group of TEP addresses.
