Abstract
Techniques for resource-based network traffic management are described. A service of a cloud provider network receives a traffic policy, the traffic policy identifying a path to a gateway to an external network, the path identifies at least one network function in the path by a resource identifier of the cloud provider network. Traffic policy association data is received, the traffic policy association data associating the traffic policy with one or more virtual networks hosted by the cloud provider network. A network configuration of the cloud provider network is updated to route network traffic from a first virtual network to the gateway to the external network through the network function.
