Methods and system are disclosed which can simplify the configuration of a MCEC in a fabric environment such that is may become automatic. Furthermore, centralized identities (such as a host tracking database and/or a network controlled) may be employed to detect the presence of a MCEC. Requiring the creation of direct links between network devices participating in the MCEC may be avoided. Furthermore, logical L2 fabric connectivity (over a L3 fabric underlay) may be utilized to provide dual homing active-active services without additional configuration, as the tracking of peer network devices may be performed in a centralized manner. For example, a host tracking database or a network controller may be employed for peer tracking.
