  • Traffic forwarding in a network with geographically dispersed sites
    Patent number: 10178024
    Abstract: An example method is provided for a first edge device to perform traffic forwarding in a network with geographically dispersed first site and second site. The method may comprise reconfiguring, for a workload migrated from the second site to the first site, the first edge device located at the first site as a default gateway of the workload from the second edge device located at the second site by causing the workload to learn an association between a default gateway Internet Protocol (IP) address associated with the second edge device to a Media Access Control (MAC) address associated with the first edge device. The method may further comprise receiving, from the workload, traffic for forwarding to a destination, and in response to determination that the destination is not within the second site, forwarding the received traffic to the destination without using the second edge device.
