Abstract

In one embodiment, a system includes a hardware processor and logic integrated with and/or executable by the hardware processor. The logic is configured to create statistics about overlay-encapsulated packets which are received by or sent by the hardware processor across an overlay network. The logic is also configured to record the statistics with a virtual network identifier and a tunnel identifier associated with at least one overlay-encapsulated packet for which the statistics are created. Moreover, the logic is configured to maintain a table indexed for the virtual network identifier and the tunnel identifier. The table includes the virtual network identifier, the tunnel identifier, and statistic bucket identifiers pointing to locations where statistics associated with the virtual network identifier and the tunnel identifier are stored. Other systems, methods, and computer program products are disclosed according to more embodiments.
