Various implementations disclosed herein include apparatuses, systems, and methods for providing virtual/virtualized network functions. In some implementations, a method includes determining that a first virtual router is configured to operate as a backup router for a second virtual router. The first virtual router and the second virtual router may reside within a public cloud. The method also includes determining, by the first virtual router, whether the second virtual router is able to route packets. The method further includes updating, by the first virtual router, a routing table to indicate that the first virtual router should be used to route packets when the second virtual router is unable to route packets.
