The present disclosure provides systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for determining container to leaf switch connectivity information in a data center in a presence of blade switches and servers. In one aspect of the present disclosure, a method of determining container to leaf switch connectivity information of a data center utilizing at least one blade switch and at least one blade server, includes receiving, at a network controller, link connectivity information that includes south-bound neighboring information between the at least one blade switch of the data center and the at least one blade server of the data center; determining, at the network controller, the container to leaf switch connectivity information of the data center, based on the link connectivity information; and generating a visual representation of a topology of the data center based on the container to leaf switch connectivity information.
