Title: IPSec Freeswan Mesh network
Post by: Neririn on October 28, 2004, 06:34:04 PM

I currently have two SME boxes in remote offices connecting via freeswanIPSec.  I want to add a third office to the "LAN" but I am not sure of the precise way to proceed.  Can I build tunnels from each existing office to the new office without problem?  Or should I just build a tunnel from one office to the new office and let the new office access the third office via the second?  

In short, is a mesh topology supported via IPSec/Freeswan using some sort of 'spanning tree' protocol or will I cause collisions doing mesh?
