Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN)
Dynamic Multipoint Virtual Private Network (DMVPN) isa dynamic tunneling form of a virtual private
network (VPN), using a multi spoke-to-hub network in which the network addresses of the spoke
routers do not need to be known, and therefore do not need to be configured in the hub router.
One advantage to this form of VPNisa scalable network in which the size of the hub configuration is
minimized. When onespokeof the network needs to send traffic to another spoke, a direct transfer is
possible without having to add any load onto the hub. This is achieved by the creation of a dynamic
GREtunnel directly to the other spoke. The network address of the target spoke is resolved with the
use of Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP).
