Abstract

Example implementation relates to a method for establishing a dynamic VPN tunnel between branch gateway devices based on metric data. A branch orchestrator receives metric data from VPNC device. The metric data includes data center bandwidth and processor utilization of the VPNC device. The metric data is derived from the traffic being routed via the VPNC device. When the metric data associated with traffic between a first branch gateway device and a second branch gateway device is above a Service Level Agreement (SLA), a dynamic branch to branch VPN tunnel is established to route the traffic between the first branch gateway device and the second branch gateway device. The VPN tunnel between the branch gateways can be teared when the load at the VPNC device reduces.
