Secure bi-directional network connectivity system between private networks

Abstract

A secure private network connectivity system (SNCS) within a cloud service provider infrastructure (CSPI) is described that provides secure private network connectivity between external resources residing in a customer's on-premise environment and the customer's resources residing in the cloud. The SNCS provides secure private bi-directional network connectivity between external resources residing in a customer's external site representation and resources and services residing in the customer's VCN in the cloud without a user (e.g., an administrator) of the enterprise having to explicitly configure the external resources, advertise routes or set up site-to-site network connectivity. The SNCS provides a high performant, scalable, and highly available site-to-site network connection for processing network traffic between a customer's on-premise environment and the CSPI by implementing a robust infrastructure of network elements and computing nodes that are used to provide the secure site to site network connectivity.
