    Abstract: Techniques for virtualizing tenant transport interfaces configured to implement pertenant network routing attribute differentiation in each tenant overlay of a multisite wide area network (WAN) and share the virtual transport interfaces between multi-tenant edge (MTE) devices providing transport services to tenant devices based on a defined tenant tier model. A Software-Defined Networking (SDN) controller may receive a physical transport interface and/or a device type associated with a tenant device. The SDN controller may determine a virtual transport interface for the tenant device based on a tier associated with the tenant. MTE device(s) may utilize the physical transport interface to establish sessions with other MTE device(s) in the WAN. The virtual transport interface may be utilized by MTE devices to implement and/or enforce network routing attributes when forwarding network traffic associated with the tenant via the sessions established between the MTE devices through the WAN.

    Abstract: Techniques for sharing the probing of software-as-a-service clouds among a cluster of routers are described herein. The techniques may include establishing a first path between a cluster of routers and an application infrastructure. Establishing a second path between the cluster of routers and the application infrastructure. Designating a first router in the cluster of routers to send probes over the first path to the application infrastructure. Designating a second router in the cluster of routers to send probes over the second path to the application infrastructure. Distributing, by the first router and to the cluster of routers, first routing performance data indicating a performance of the first path when communicating with the application infrastructure over the first path, distributing, by the second router and to the cluster of routers, second routing performance data indicating a performance of the second path when communicating with the application infrastructure over the second path.
