Abstract

See full text

Some embodiments provide a method for a network controller. The method configures a first data compute node (DCN), operating within a public first datacenter that includes forwarding elements to which the network controller does not have access, to operate as a gateway forwarding element between (i) other DCNs in the first datacenter on which forwarding elements are configured by the network controller and (ii) forwarding elements in a second datacenter. The method configures the forwarding elements executing on the other DCNs in the public datacenter to implement a logical switch to which the other DCNs attach. The method configures the forwarding elements in the second datacenter to implement the logical switch. DCNs in the second datacenter also attach to the same logical switch.
