Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices for improved routing operations in a network computing environment. A system includes a first switch and a second switch in a network topology. The system includes a host virtual machine in communication with at least one of the first switch and the second switch. The system includes a routed peer link connecting the first switch to the second switch. The system is such that the first switch and the second switch have the same Internet protocol (IP) address and media access control (MAC) address.
