Abstract
In a computing environment comprising a plurality of compute, storage and network assets, a method initiates at a given asset a join operation for the given asset to become a member of a mesh network formed by the plurality of compute, storage and network assets. A network neighbor data structure associated with the given asset is created/updated based on the join operation. The method initiates at the given asset a route discovery operation to identify one or more routes through the mesh network to enable the given asset to access a remote support gateway. A network routing data structure associated with the given asset is created/updated based on the route discovery operation. The given asset may also advertise at least a portion of its routing data structure to the compute, storage and network assets in the computing environment.
