Abstract
Systems and methods for accessing cloud services by managing network routes are provided. A network switch may receive network routes and forward the network routes to a route server where the network routes are saved and calculated. The route server may select a subset of the calculated network routes on which the network switch is able to directly forward data packets and configure a switch forwarding table. The network switch may receive the switch forwarding table, forward data packets having destination IP addresses in the switch forwarding table to the destination IP addresses directly, and forward other data packets to the default gateway server. A default gateway server may receive the calculated network routes from the route server enabling the gate server to forward any received data packets, and receive, from the network switch, the other data packets for forwarding to their destination IP addresses.
