Embodiments are directed to managing communication over one or more networks. A monitoring engine may be instantiated to perform actions including receiving network traffic from a physical network that may be associated with network addresses of the physical network. The monitoring engine may analyze the network traffic to associate activity with gateway identifiers (GIDs) associated with gateway computers in an overlay network such that the GIDs are separate from the network addresses. The monitoring engine may be arranged to monitor the network traffic based on monitoring rules. The monitoring engine may provide metrics associated with the gateway computers based on the monitoring of the network traffic. The monitoring engine may compare the metrics to event rules. The monitoring engine may generate events based on affirmative results of the comparison. The events may be mapped to actions based on characteristics of the events and executed.
A method for managing communication over one or more networks using one or more network computers, wherein execution of instructions by the one or more network computers perform the method comprising:
A system for managing communication over one or more networks using one or more network computers, the system comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
