  39. Google Cloud Platform We need a bridge between the physical

    and overlay networks...

  40. Google Cloud Platform We need a bridge between the physical

    and overlay networks... • could: route to nodes • could: route to 1 or more bridge machines • could: run flannel on client machines

  41. Google Cloud Platform We need a bridge between the physical

    and overlay networks... • could: route to nodes • could: route to 1 or more bridge machines • could: run flannel on client machines • see “When should I use an overlay?”
