Abstract: A system and method for performing a service discovery on a distributed computer system includes obtaining information of a service that is provided by a host computer in the distributed computer system and embedding the information into a Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) data frame to be transmitted from the host computer to another component of the distributed computer system.

Abstract: The disclosure herein describes a system, which provides uniform access to a gateway in an extended virtualized layer-2 network. During operation, the system identifies a media access control (MAC) address, which is associated with a respective gateway in the extended virtualized layer-2 network, in a layer-2 header of a data frame. This MAC address is specific to the extended virtualized layer-2 network (e.g., for a different extended virtualized layer-2 network, a different MAC address is associated with a respective gateway). The system modifies the layer-2 header by swapping the MAC address with another MAC address, which uniquely identifies a gateway in the extended virtualized layer-2 network, in the layer-2 header and forwards the frame with the modified header to the gateway.
