Implementing a single-addressable virtual topology element in a virtual topology

Abstract:

Techniques for implementing a single-addressable virtual topology element (VTE) in a virtual topology. A VTE in a virtual topology may be distributed as multiple instantiated elements in a physical topology. However, the multiple instantiated elements are addressable as a single entity. Obtaining information associated with the VTE includes obtaining and aggregating information from each of the instantiated elements. Applying an overall configuration to the VTE includes determining a respective configuration for each instantiated element based on the overall configuration, and applying the respective configuration to each instantiated element.
