Abstract

In an example, a failure event is detected in a network, where the failure event is indicative of a network outage in a network device or a peer network device of an MC-LAG. The network device and the peer network device may be configured as a first VTEP in an overlay network. It may be determined that reprovisioning of virtual tunnels in the network device is incomplete. State parameters between the network device and the peer network device is synchronized. The set of virtual tunnels in the network device is provisioned based on the state parameters. After completion of provisioning of the virtual tunnels, an IP address of the first VTEP is published to underlay network devices connecting the first VTEP to a second VTEP over an underlay network. Subsequently, communication links between the MC-LAG and a host device is enabled.
