Abstract

See full text

In a method for maintaining virtual network context across multiple infrastructures, a data packet having a virtual network identifier in a first routing infrastructure is accessed, wherein the virtual network identifier indicates a tenant network. The data packet is encapsulated for transport of the data packet through a second routing infrastructure. In addition, the virtual network identifier is inserted into the encapsulation of the data packet for routing of the data packet through the second routing infrastructure while maintaining virtual network context and identification between the first routing infrastructure and the second routing infrastructure, wherein the first routing infrastructure operates under a first virtual networking technology and the second routing infrastructure operates under a second virtual networking technology.
