Abstract
In a computer networking system, data is transmitted between network devices in packets. The disclosure provides mechanisms for preserving address data in a stateless manner by storing a unique identifier, corresponding to an address of an endpoint targeted by an original source device, in a header field of an encapsulated packet. The unique identifier may be persisted in an encapsulated return packet transmitted back to the original source device and used to recover the address of the endpoint for inclusion in a source header field of the return packet that is transmitted to the original source device.
