Abstract
A network function orchestrator (NFO) of a local area network (LAN) controller can configure multiple different tunnel endpoints in the LAN based on network traffic observed within the LAN. The NFO can monitor network traffic communicated from client devices and through access points in the LAN. The network traffic can be associated with multiple different destinations. The NFO can determine, based on the network traffic and using network topology data, network devices to serve as tunnel endpoints within the LAN. Different tunnel endpoints can be configured for use in connection with different traffic destinations. The NFO can communicate with the network devices and the access points to configure the LAN to use the different tunnel endpoints.
