Embodiments are directed to managing communication over networks. A gateway identifier (GID), a network address, source nodes, relays, or the like, may be determined based on an overlay network. Two or more relays may be ranked based on metrics associated with each relay such that a top ranked relay is designated as a preferred relay.

Relay node management for overlay networks

Embodiments are directed to managing communication over one or more networks. An underlay network that couples a source gateway and a target gateway using underlay protocols may be provided such that the target gateway includes two or more port groups that may each be associated with a separate target node. An overlay network may be provided on the underlay network based on policy information such that the source gateway and the target gateway may each be assigned separate gateway identifiers (GIDs) that are associated with the overlay network. In response to the source gateway authorizing a source node to employ the overlay network to communicate one or more encrypted payloads to a target node, the one or more encrypted payloads may be provided to the target node based on the overlay network and the policy information.
