Cloud endpoints are secured using agents and a controller connected to the agents. A whitelist identifies components and processes of an authorized multi-tiered application for the cloud. An application profile for the application specifies valid computing flows between components of a tier and components of another tier, where components of the tier are executed at an endpoint and the other components of the other tier are executed at another endpoint. Endpoints are provisioned with static routing tables identifying at least one subnet destination. A request is received at a first endpoint to connect to a second endpoint. If the second endpoint falls within the at least one subnet destination, the controller performs one or more further security checks including checking the application profile flow, whitelist, and endpoint quarantine list. A network kernel table at an endpoint that includes the static routing table may be periodically checked to detect tampering.

A method and system for an aggregated virtual local area network (VLAN) architecture in which several VLANs in a network share the same default router address and subnet mask, but remain isolated from one another's network traffic. Instead of the traditional method of assigning one subnet to a VLAN, each VLAN is assigned only a portion of a subnet's IP address space, and is further grouped into a super-VLAN uniquely associated with that subnet. Intra-VLAN traffic is forwarded only to host IP addresses assigned to that same VLAN according to a VLAN identifier carried in the data packet. Inter-VLAN traffic is processed by a virtual router interface which routes the data packet by applying the routing configuration for the subnet uniquely associated with the super-VLAN, according to a super-VLAN identifier carried in the data packet. The routing configuration used by the virtual router interface includes routing protocols, static routes, redundant router protocols and access-lists. Since each VLAN shares the same virtual router interlace, the traditional address overhead of a subnet is minimized, requiring only one default router and subnet mask, as well as only one pair of subnet broadcast addresses for all hosts on the subnet and the subnet itself. The aggregated VLAN architecture provides for the efficient use and management of a network's IP address space.

An upstream device, such as a load balancer or router within a server farm, may perform sticky routing of session requests to the servers handling those sessions by generating unique ID(s) identifying how requests may be routed through the server farm. Upstream devices through which travels a request that is not associated with a session on a server of the server farm may generate one or more unique IDs identifying how the request is routed through the server farm. The server handling the request may form a session ID and return that session ID and the unique ID(s) to the client that originated the new request and session. Clients may then send the session ID and unique IDs with clients requests for that session. Upon receiving requests corresponding to established sessions, the upstream devices may then identify routing information from the unique ID(s) and route the request accordingly.

Label switched paths are installed in a label switched communications packet network. Paths are selected by defining and installing partial routes each having two or more paths such that an end-to-end route across the network can be defined as the concatenation of two partial routes. Signalling to select a path is effected by sending a path message from an end point to a first virtual router, determining a path from the end point to the virtual router, and forwarding an identity of the path to a second virtual router. The second virtual router determines a routing vector across the network, and returns information identifying the routing vector to the first virtual router.
