Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing a GUI for representing tunnels and stretched networks in a virtual entity pathway virtualization. In an example, an application can obtain data related to physical and virtual entities in a stretch network and build a model of the stretch network using the data. The model can be based on a flow of network traffic between two entities. The application can render a GUI that illustrates the flow of traffic between two entities, including any datacenters, physical entities, and virtual entities involved in the network flow. The GUI can display the entities in a way that shows which virtual extensible local area network is being used to transfer the network traffic at each step in the network flow. The GUI can also display icons representing remote tunnel endpoints that show how network traffic is transferred between datacenters.
