Abstract:
A network device receives, from another network device associated with a first data center, a route update that includes a common virtual network identifier or a first virtual network identifier associated with the first data center. The network device translates the common virtual network identifier or the first virtual network identifier to a second virtual network identifier associated with a second data center, where the second data center is different than the first data center. The network device provides the route update, with the second virtual network identifier, to the second data center.
