Abstract
In general, the disclosure describes examples where a single software-defined network (SDN) controller establishes tunnels and controls communication on these tunnels between a plurality of virtual computing environments (VCEs). The SDN controller establishes the logical tunnel mesh to interconnect the plurality of VCEs in the multi-cloud network via respective connect gateway routers. To establish the logical tunnel mesh, the SDN controller is configured to determine one or more logical tunnels from the logical tunnel mesh to establish one or more communication links between a first VCE and a second VCE of the plurality of VCEs in the multi-cloud network. The SDN controller is configured to advertise the one or more logical tunnels to the first VCE and the second VCE.
