    Abstract: According to some embodiments, a software defined wide area network (SD-WAN) includes a first region and a second region. The first region includes multiple first routing controllers and multiple first SD-WAN edge routers. The second region includes multiple second routing controllers and multiple second SD-WAN edge routers. Each first SD-WAN edge router of the first region is configured to establish Overlay Management Protocol (OMP) peering connections with the plurality of first routing controllers of the first region but to avoid establishing OMP peering connections with the plurality of second routing controllers of the second region. Each second SD-WAN edge router of the second region is configured to establish OMP peering connections with the plurality of second routing controllers of the second region but to avoid establishing OMP peering connections with the plurality of first routing controllers of the first region.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, by a first node of a node cluster in a software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN), traffic from a wide area network (WAN), assigning, by the first node of the node cluster, flow ownership of the traffic to the first node, and communicating, by the first node of the node cluster, the traffic to a local area network (LAN). The method also includes receiving, by the first node of the node cluster, return traffic from a second node of the node cluster and detecting, by the first node of the node cluster, a diversion of the return traffic. The method further includes relinquishing, by the first node of the node cluster, the flow ownership and assigning, by the first node of the node cluster, the flow ownership to the second node of the node cluster.
