DYNAMIC ROUTE CONFIGURATION AND LOAD BALANCING FOR EDGE GATEWAYS

Abstract:

Described herein are systems, methods, and software to manage communication path configurations between edge gateways in a computing environment. In at least one implementation, a controller monitors network characteristics associated with routes from a first edge gateway to a second edge gateway and determines whether a first route configuration for the first edge gateway to communicate with the second edge gateway fails to satisfy criteria based on the network characteristics. If the first route configuration fails to satisfy the criteria, the controller determines a second route configuration and applies the second route configuration for the first edge gateway to communicate with the second edge gateway.
