Abstract
Some embodiments provide a method that collects metrics for one or more paths of a first tunnel implementing a first security association (SA) and for one or more paths of a second tunnel implementing a second SA. The method selects a path based on the collected metrics of the paths of the first and second tunnels. When the selected path belongs to the first tunnel, the method encrypts data transmitted as encrypted payload of the first SA and transmits the encrypted payload in the first tunnel. When the selected path belongs to the second tunnel, the method encrypts data to be transmitted as encrypted payload of the second SA and transmits the encrypted payload in the second tunnel.
