Abstract:
A method for bridging communication between a plurality of Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network (VXLAN) networks, wherein the method comprises joining the VXLAN networks, obtaining a forwarding entry table that associates a plurality of endpoints with a plurality of VXLAN tunnel endpoints (VTEPs) within the VXLAN networks, receiving a VXLAN encapsulated data packet from one of the VXLAN networks, and transmitting the VXLAN encapsulated data packet using the forwarding entry table to a different VXLAN network.
