Ok,

I'm glad that it's possible, I just don't know how to put it all
together yet.

So I would have to create 2 gif tunnels at each branch office. One going
over the leased lines and the other over internet.

Over these GIF tunnels I would run ipsec to encrypt the data?

Could you give some more information how to set this up? Just a
overview.

It's all a bit overwhelming to be honest.


Regards,

Kor Boerema

By using a tunneling protocol your traffic will from an ipsec point of
view always have the same source/destination. You also avoid
fragmentation of packets if the hosts talking support PMTU discovery,
unless your tunnel mtu is too big of course.
