Abstract

An example method of mitigating oversubscription of traffic to edge services gateways in a data center includes: receiving, by a host of the data center, traffic metrics corresponding to the ESGs; determining traffic congestion at a first active edge of the ESGs in response to the traffic metrics; dividing, in response to the traffic congestion, a classless inter-domain routing (CIDR) block assigned to the first active edge into a first CIDR block and a second CIDR block; and creating, in a routing table of a router, a first route between an internet protocol (IP) address of the first active edge and the first CIDR block, and a second route between an IP address of a second active edge of the ESGs and the second CIDR block.
