To fully utilize the bandwidth available in IP WAN or the Internet, load balancing of traffic between different IPsec VPN sites over Equal Cost Multi-Path (ECMP) and/or Link Aggregation Group (LAG) is attractive to those enterprises deploying IPsec VPN solutions. This document defines a method to encapsulate IPsec Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) packets over UDP tunnels for improving load-balancing of IPsec ESP traffic.}, }
