Abstract: A method includes receiving, from a user device, a reachability request requesting a reachability status of network traffic from a first VM of a VPC to a second VM of the VPC. The method also includes obtaining network configuration information defining a configuration of a network connecting the first VM and the second VM, generating, using the network configuration information associated with the VPC, a simulated path between the first VM and the second VM, and, determining, based on the simulated path, that the second VM is unreachable from the first VM. The method further includes, based on determining that the second VM is unreachable from the first VM, generating a reachability report, the reachability report including each hop of the plurality of hops of the simulated path, and a rationale that the second VM is unreachable from the first VM, and providing the reachability report to the user device.

Abstract: A method for providing cloud network reachability analysis includes receiving a reachability query requesting a reachability status of a target including a packet header associated with a data packet. The packet header includes a source IP address and a destination IP address. The method also includes generating one or more simulated forwarding paths for the data packet based on the packet header using a data plane model. Each simulated forwarding path includes corresponding network configuration information. The method includes determining the reachability status of the target based on the one or more simulated forwarding paths and providing the determined reachability status and the one or more simulated forwarding paths to a user device associated with the reachability query which causes the user device to present the network configuration information for each simulated forwarding path.
