Embodiments are directed to managing communication. Credentials of a user may be provided to an authorization service such that the authorization service authenticates the user as a member of authorization groups and such that the user may be associated with a gateway on an overlay network. The authorization groups may be compared with user groups to associate the user with one or more user group. The gateway may be associated with one or more resource group based on the user groups. Policy information may be generated for the gateway based on each resource group. The policy information may be provided to the gateway to define policies associated with resources in the overlay network. The policy information may be enforced against source nodes providing overlay traffic directed to target nodes in the overlay network.

Applying overlay network policy based on users

Embodiments are directed to managing communication over one or more networks. A monitoring engine may be instantiated to perform actions including receiving network traffic from a physical network that may be associated with network addresses of the physical network. The monitoring engine may analyze the network traffic to associate activity with gateway identifiers (GIDs) associated with gateway computers in an overlay network such that the GIDs are separate from the network addresses. The monitoring engine may be arranged to monitor the network traffic based on monitoring rules. The monitoring engine may provide metrics associated with the gateway computers based on the monitoring of the network traffic. The monitoring engine may compare the metrics to event rules. The monitoring engine may generate events based on affirmative results of the comparison. The events may be mapped to actions based on characteristics of the events and executed.
