Concentrator
In a hub-and-spoke configuration, policy-based VPN connections to a number of remote
peers radiate from a single, central FortiGate unit. Site-to-site connections between the
remote peers do not exist; however, You can establish VPN tunnels between any two of
the remote peers through the FortiGate unit “hub”.
In a hub-and-spoke network, all VPN tunnels terminate at the hub. The peers that connect
to the hub are known as “spokes”. The hub functions as a concentrator on the network,
managing all VPN connections between the spokes. VPN traffic passes from one tunnel to
the other through the hub.
You define a concentrator to include spokes in the hub-and-spoke configuration.
