Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Embodiments of the invention relate to providing virtual network domain movement operations for overlay networks. One embodiment includes a method that includes determining one or more overlay network attributes (ONAs) for a plurality of virtual networks. The one or more ONAs are associated with the virtual networks. The one or more ONAs are managed as one or more portable entities by one or more of creating ONAs, deleting ONAs, moving ONAs, combining ONAs and dividing ONAs. A movement operation is performed on the one or more virtual networks among one or more servers of one or more overlay networks based on the management of the one or more ONAs.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A method comprising: determining one or more overlay network attributes (ONAs) for a plurality of virtual networks; associating the one or more ONAs with the plurality of virtual networks; managing the one or more ONAs as one or more portable entities by one or more of creating ONAs, deleting ONAs, moving ONAs, combining ONAs and dividing ONAs; and performing a movement operation on the one or more virtual networks among one or more servers of one o…
