Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure are directed to a provider edge synchronizer for coordinating entries in an overlay network. The provider edge synchronizer can determine and maintain mappings for hosts in the overlay network using lookup tables. When a provider edge in the overlay network sends a request, the provider edge synchronizer can generate a response based on the lookup tables and can then send the response to all gateways, particularly redundant centralized gateways.
