Network hub site redundancy and failover
A method may include receiving a hub ID configuration preference message from a control device, wherein the hub ID configuration preference message includes an order in which to connect to network hubs that are associated with the hub IDs; selecting the first hub ID from the hub ID configuration preference message based on the first connection priority having a higher priority as compared to the second connection priority; identifying a first set of network hubs that are associated with the first hub ID; establishing a connection with at least one network hub associated with the first hub ID; in response to identifying a triggering event, selecting the second hub ID from the hub ID configuration preference message; identifying a second set of network hubs that are associated with the second hub ID; and establishing a connection with at least one network hub associated with the second hub ID.
1. A method comprising:
selecting a first hub ID from a hub ID configuration preference list based on a first connection priority having a higher priority as compared to a second connection priority;
identifying a first set of network hubs that are associated with the first hub ID;
establishing a connection with at least one network hubs of the first set associated with the first hub ID;
in response to identifying a triggering event, selecting a second hub ID from the hub ID configuration preference list;
identifying a second set of network hubs that are associated with the second hub ID; and
establishing a connection with at least one network hub of the second set associated with the second hub ID.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving a hub ID configuration preference message from a control device, wherein the hub ID configuration preference message includes an order in which to connect to network hubs that are associated with the hub IDs;
wherein the hub ID configuration preference message includes the first hub ID associated with the first connection priority and the second hub ID associated with the second connection priority, wherein the first connection priority includes a higher priority as compared to the second connection priority.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the hub ID configuration preference message includes a hub of last resort.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein establishing the connection with the at least one network hub associated with the first hub ID includes establishing the connection on a control plane of that is isolated from a data plane.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first hub ID includes a hub group ID, wherein identifying the first set of network hubs that are associated with the first hub ID includes selecting one or more hubs associated with the hub group ID.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the triggering event includes a failure of the at least one network hub associated with the first hub ID.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the triggering event includes a loss of connection to the at least one network hub associated with the first hub ID.
8. A non-transitory computer-readable medium that includes computer-readable instructions stored thereon that are executable by a processor to perform operations comprising:
selecting a first hub ID from a hub ID configuration preference list based on a first connection priority having a higher priority as compared to a second connection priority;
identifying a first set of network hubs that are associated with the first hub ID;
establishing a connection with at least one network hubs of the first set associated with the first hub ID;
in response to identifying a triggering event, selecting a second hub ID from the hub ID configuration preference list;
identifying a second set of network hubs that are associated with the second hub ID; and
establishing a connection with at least one network hub of the second set associated with the second hub ID.
9. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , the operations further comprising:
receiving a hub ID configuration preference message from a control device, wherein the hub ID configuration preference message includes an order in which to connect to network hubs that are associated with the hub IDs;
wherein the hub ID configuration preference message includes the first hub ID associated with the first connection priority and the second hub ID associated with the second connection priority, wherein the first connection priority includes a higher priority as compared to the second connection priority.
10. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 9 , wherein the hub ID configuration preference message includes a hub of last resort.
11. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein establishing the connection with the at least one network hub associated with the first hub ID includes an operation to establish the connection on a control plane of that is isolated from a data plane.
12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the first hub ID includes a hub group ID, wherein identifying the first set of network hubs that are associated with the first hub ID includes an operation to select one or more hubs associated with the hub group ID.
13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the triggering event includes a failure of the at least one network hub associated with the first hub ID.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the triggering event includes a loss of connection to the at least one network hub associated with the first hub ID.
15. A system comprising:
a memory; and
one or more processors, the one or more processors configured to perform operations comprising:
selecting a first hub ID from a hub ID configuration preference list based on a first connection priority having a higher priority as compared to a second connection priority;
identifying a first set of network hubs that are associated with the first hub ID;
establishing a connection with at least one network hubs of the first set associated with the first hub ID;
in response to identifying a triggering event, selecting a second hub ID from the hub ID configuration preference list;
identifying a second set of network hubs that are associated with the second hub ID; and
establishing a connection with at least one network hub of the second set associated with the second hub ID.
16. The system of claim 15 , the operations further comprising:
receiving a hub ID configuration preference message from a control device, wherein the hub ID configuration preference message includes an order in which to connect to network hubs that are associated with the hub IDs;
wherein the hub ID configuration preference message includes the first hub ID associated with the first connection priority and the second hub ID associated with the second connection priority, wherein the first connection priority includes a higher priority as compared to the second connection priority.
17. The system of claim 15 , wherein when establishing the connection with the at least one network hub associated with the first hub ID, the one or more processors are configured to perform operations to establish the connection on a control plane of that is isolated from a data plane.
18. The system of claim 15 , wherein the first hub ID includes a hub group ID, wherein when identifying the first set of network hubs that are associated with the first hub ID, the one or more processors are configured to perform operations to select one or more hubs associated with the hub group ID.
19. The system of claim 15 , wherein the triggering event includes a failure of the at least one network hub associated with the first hub ID.
20. The system of claim 15 , wherein the triggering event includes a loss of connection to the at least one network hub associated with the first hub ID.
