Abstract
Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for implementing an SD-WAN connecting multiple sites at multiple physical locations. The method is performed at a first hub router of the SD-WAN. The method establishes, with a first edge router of a first site in a first region, a new connection for the first hub router to use to connect the first edge router to a second edge router of a second site in the first region. The method determines that a peer-connection notification regarding the newly connected first edge router has to be sent to a first route reflector (RR) that does not connect directly with the first edge router but connects to routers in a second region. The method sends the peer-connection notification to the first RR to analyze and determine whether to obtain routes associated with the first edge router for advertising to routers in the second region.
