Abstract
A connectivity manager (CM) of a provider network establishes a plurality of ERGs (edge resource groups), each comprising at least an edge router and a network marker translation agent (NMTA). The CM selects a particular ERG to be used for network traffic between a first set of resources of a virtual computing service of the provider network and a second set of resources outside the provider network. To enable connectivity between the first and second set of resources, the CM initiate propagation of (a) routing metadata to an edge router of the particular ERG and/or (b) a network marker mapping entry to an NMTA of the particular ERG.
