Abstract

A system and method for redirecting data packets communicated to a computing device over an overlay network is disclosed. The method includes monitoring resources installed on the computing device to identify the resources communicating over dedicated underlay IP address. The method further includes creating a rule based on the resources identified. The rule is transferred and stored on the computing device. On receiving a data packet, the rule is executed for redirecting the data packets from the overlay network to an underlay network and vice versa. The data packets are redirected by translating a destination IP address on a header of the data packet from an overlay IP address to an underlay IP address. The method thus redirects the data packets from the overlay network to the underlay network before reaching the resource, thereby preventing dropping of the data packet.
