Patent number: 10791041Abstract: A novel centralized troubleshooting tool that enables user to troubleshoot a distributed virtual network with a single consistent user interface is provided. The distributed virtual network being monitored or debugged by the centralized troubleshooting tool includes different types of logical resources (LRs) that placed or distributed across different physical endpoints (PEs). The centralized troubleshooting tool provides functions that allow the user to invoke commands on different physical endpoints in order to collect information about the logical resources running in those physical endpoints. This allows the user to compare and analyze the information from different PEs for a same LR.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2015Date of Patent: September 29, 2020Assignee: NICIRA, INC.Inventors: Xin Wang, Yusheng Wang, Jianjun Shen, Donghai Han, Hua Wang, Chidambareswaran Raman, Akhila Naveen, Raju Koganty

Publication number: 20200272500Abstract: Some embodiments provide novel methods for performing services for machines operating in one or more datacenters. For instance, for a group of related guest machines (e.g., a group of tenant machines), some embodiments define two different forwarding planes: (1) a guest forwarding plane and (2) a service forwarding plane. The guest forwarding plane connects to the machines in the group and performs L2 and/or L3 forwarding for these machines. The service forwarding plane (1) connects to the service nodes that perform services on data messages sent to and from these machines, and (2) forwards these data messages to the service nodes. In some embodiments, the guest machines do not connect directly with the service forwarding plane. For instance, in some embodiments, each forwarding plane connects to a machine or service node through a port that receives data messages from, or supplies data messages to, the machine or service node.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 18, 2019Publication date: August 27, 2020Inventors: Yong Feng, Akhila Naveen, Fenil Kavathia, Pierluigi Rolando, Jayant Jain, Raju Koganty

Publication number: 20200274791Abstract: In an embodiment, a method for a VRF and multi-service insertion on edge gateways is described. In an embodiment, the method comprises obtaining a rule configuration. Based on, at least in part, the rule configuration, a rule table is created. The rule table comprises rule data records, wherein a rule data record comprises packet attributes and a redirection identifier. A policy configuration comprising policy records is obtained. Each policy record comprises a redirection identifier, a next_hop, and an address pair for interfaces. A mapping between VRF identifiers and address pairs is generated. Based on, at least in part, the mapping and the policy configuration, a policy table is generated. The policy table comprises table records, wherein a table record comprises a redirection identifier, a next_hop, and an address pair. The rule and policy tables are used to redirect a packet from an edge gateway to a service virtual machine.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2019Publication date: August 27, 2020Applicant: VMware, Inc.Inventors: Rahul Mishra, Kantesh Mundaragi, Stephen Tan, Akhila Naveen, Pierluigi Rolando, Raju Koganty
