Abstract

Techniques for propagating security group tag mapping between external interconnected sites that are not capable of carrying the SGT mappings. A system is disclosed that includes operations of subscribing at a first border of a first site, by a control plane, a first SGT mapping associated with a first data packet at the first site for storing the SGT mapping of the first data packet at the control plane. Then transmitting, the first data packet from the first border of the first site to a second border of the second site without attaching the first SGT mapping with the first data packet. Further, in response to a determination by the control plane that the first data packet has lost the associated first SGT mapping at the second border, identifying the SGT mapping with the first data packet at the second border to be re-associated with the first data packet.
