Certain embodiments described herein are generally directed to interconnecting a plurality of local control planes (LCP) for state data exchange. In some embodiments, a first LCP receives the state data and a distribution list from a central control plane (CCP) node. The distribution list may comprise identifiers of LCPs to which the state data relates. In certain embodiments, the first LCP transmits an acknowledgment to the CCP node indicating receipt of the state data. In some embodiments, the first LCP identifies, according to a distribution pattern, one or more target LCPs of those identified in the distribution list. The distribution pattern may be based on information in the distribution list, information stored by the first LCP, or a combination of the two. In some embodiments, the first LCP may transmit the state data to the one or more target LCPs.
