Abstract

A category of auxiliary tasks (such as routing configuration management or packet content transformation) associated with transmission of network packets between sets of network endpoints is determined. A virtual router is configured to transmit the packets between the sets of network endpoints. Connectivity is enabled between the virtual router and an auxiliary task offloading resource. Results of an auxiliary task performed at the offloading resource are used to transmit at least some packets between the sets of network endpoints.
