HOST ROUTED OVERLAY WITH DETERMINISTIC HOST LEARNING AND LOCALIZED INTEGRATED ROUTING AND BRIDGING

Systems, methods, and devices for improved routing operations in a network computing environment. A system includes a virtual customer edge router and a host routed overlay comprising a plurality of host virtual machines. The system includes a routed uplink from the virtual customer edge router to one or more of the plurality of leaf nodes. The system is such that the virtual customer edge router is configured to provide localized integrated routing and bridging (TRB) service for the plurality of host virtual machines of the host routed overlay.
