Hi there. There is another thread dated around the 13 May on this
exact issue so look out for that for extra clues.
What you are after is definatly possible with hardware at all three
points. They call is a partial mesh or something. It requires two
aspects to be considered:
1) Routing (on NS and devices on the LANs)
2) VPNs to accept traffic to multiple subnets.
This is acheiveable with the hardware. Multiple tunnels into central
site for each endpoint the box requires and a route table on the
central site which dictates who can go where. A little trickier on the
software. If you have control over the addressing you could use
supernetting where in your example the software VPN for the whole
10.1.0.0/16. On the central site route based tunneling should take
care of delivering to either trust or across another VPN. Once
again,remember to set the far end VPN device to route to the software
via the central VPN.
Clear as mud?
