Abstract

A multi-gateway virtual machine that operates multiple gateways. Each gateway acts as an interface between a virtual network and entities outside of the virtual network. Each virtual network has its own address space, which may be overlapping with the address space of other virtual networks, even if the gateways of those virtual networks are operating on the same virtual machine. Accordingly, the principles described herein relate to a virtual machine that can operate thereon multiple gateways, and thus to a multi-gateway virtual machine that services multiple virtual networks.
