Patent attributes
Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for connecting deployed machines in a set of one or more software-defined datacenters (SDDCs) to a virtual private cloud (VPC) in an availability zone (AZ). The method deploys network plugin agents (e.g. listening agents) on multiple host computers and configures the network plugin agents to receive notifications of events related to the deployment of network elements from a set of compute deployment agents executing on the particular deployed network plugin agent's host computer. The method, in some embodiments, is performed by a network manager that receives notifications from the deployed network plugin agents regarding events relating to the deployed machines and, in response to the received notifications, configures network elements to connect one or more sets of the deployed machines.
