Abstract:
A first network device receives a first data packet from a registry device. The first data packet includes a destination of a first host coupled to the first network device and reachability information for a second host coupled to a second network device. The first network device stores the reachability information for the second host, which indicates that the second host is coupled to the second network device. The first network device transmits the first data packet without the reachability information to the first host. Using the reachability information for the second host, a tunnel is created from the first network device to the second network device.
