Abstract:
Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for translating source addresses in an overlay network. An access switch in an overlay network, such as a VXLAN, may receive an encapsulated packet from a tunnel endpoint in the overlay network. The encapsulated packet may originate from a host associated with the tunnel endpoint and be encapsulated at the tunnel endpoint with a first source tunnel endpoint address and a destination tunnel endpoint address. The access switch may replace the first source tunnel endpoint address in the encapsulated packet with a second source tunnel endpoint address of the access switch to yield a translated packet. The access switch may then transmit the translated packet towards the destination tunnel endpoint address.

Claim (Index 8):
A system comprising:\n a processor; and a memory having stored therein instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the system to perform operations comprising:\n receiving, at a first access switch in an overlay network, an encapsulated packet being encapsulated with a first source tunnel endpoint address and a destination tunnel endpoint address of a second access switch in the overlay network; \n replacing the first source tunnel endpoint address in the encapsulated packet with a second source tunnel endpoint address of the first access switch to yield a translated packet; and \n wherein the second access switch is configured to forward the translated packet to a second tunnel endpoint associated with the second access switch.
