1. A device, comprising:
a processing system including a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations, the operations comprising:
receiving routing information corresponding to an end user device that is announced over a first path via a Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) core;
receiving adjusted routing information corresponding to the end user device that is generated based on the routing information, wherein the adjusted routing information is announced over a second path that includes a local cloud interconnect router having a national Routing Information Base (RIB) associated with the MPLS core, wherein the second path avoids the MPLS core, and wherein the adjusted routing information includes a local path identifier; and
routing traffic to the end user device via the second path according to the local path identifier.
