Claim 15:
16. An apparatus, comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory including instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to at least:
receive, for a tenant of a data center including a data center network, an indication of a traffic source of the tenant and a traffic destination of the tenant;
obtain, for the tenant of the data center, mapping information indicative of a mapping of a network overlay connection of the tenant in the data center to a set of network underlay connections of the data center network;
determine, based on the mapping information, that the traffic source of the tenant is connected to a leaf switch of the data center network;
determine, based on the mapping information, that the leaf switch supports a route associated with the network overlay connection that points to a first spine switch associated with a first network underlay connection of the data center network and that points to a second spine switch associated with a second network underlay connection of the data center network;
determine a probe injection point on the leaf switch and a set of probe extraction points that includes a first probe extraction point on the first spine switch and a second probe extraction point on the second spine switch; and
support, based on the probe injection point and the set of probe extraction points, probing for the tenant of the data center.
