  1. The hosts <b>alice</b>, <b>venus</b>, <b>carol</b>, and <b>dave</b> set up tunnel connections
  2. to gateway <b>moon</b> in a <b>hub-and-spoke</b> fashion. Each host requests a <b>virtual IP</b>
  3. with the <b>leftsourceip=%config</b> parameter. Gateway <b>moon</b> assigns virtual
  4. IP addresses from a pool named <b>extpool</b> [10.3.0.1..10.3.1.244] to hosts connecting
  5. to the <b>eth0</b> (PH_IP_MOON) interface and virtual IP addresses from a pool named <b>intpool</b>
  6. [10.4.0.1..10.4.1.244] to hosts connecting to the <b>eth1</b> (PH_IP_MOON1) interface.
  7. Thus <b>carol</b> and <b>dave</b> are assigned <b>PH_IP_CAROL1</b> and <b>PH_IP_DAVE1</b>,
  8. respectively, whereas <b>alice</b> and <b>venus</b> get <b>10.4.0.1</b> and <b>10.4.0.2</b>,
  9. respectively.
  10. <p>
  11. By defining the composite IPsec SA: <b>rightsubnet=10.3.0.0/16,10.4.0.0/16</b>, each of the four
  12. spokes can securely reach any other spoke via the central hub <b>moon</b>. This is
  13. demonstrated by <b>alice</b> and <b>dave</b> pinging the assigned virtual IP addresses
  14. of <b>carol</b> and <b>venus</b>.
