In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a first network control entity configured to be implemented at a first edge device. The first network control entity is configured to receive a control packet from a peripheral processing device via a tunnel that is between the peripheral processing device and the first network control entity and that includes at least a portion within a second edge device. The first network control entity is configured to determine routing information associated with the peripheral processing device based on the control packet. The first network control entity is configured to send the routing information to a second network control entity such that the second network control entity routes a data unit addressed to the peripheral processing device to the second edge device without sending the data unit to the first edge device.
