Abstract: A cloud service is provided and accessible via a virtual IP address in a virtual cloud network (VCN), where the VCN is part of an overlay network. A source network virtualization device (NVD) receives a first packet destined to the virtual IP address. The source NVD determined based upon a dynamic routing gateway table, the VCN mapped to the virtual IP address. Further, the source NVD identifies based upon the virtual IP address, a substrate IP address of a destination NVD that implements a virtual network interface card (VNIC) associated with the virtual IP address and communicates the first packet from the source NVD to the destination NVD using the substrate IP address.
