When a VPN tunnel is formed with a Maestro SGM?
The correct answer is B. SGM 1 analyzes the policy and topology. If encryption is required, it calculates the tunnel owner's. Below is a flow of hosts behind a Maestro Security Group. The host opens a clear connection to the other side over the Internet: 1. The host opens a connection and sends a clear packet to the uplink of the Orchestrator. 2.

Explanation
Below is a flow of hosts behind a Maestro Security Group. The host opens a clear connection to the other side over the Internet: 1. The host opens a connection and sends a clear packet to the uplink of the Orchestrator. 2. The Orchestrator distributes it accordingly to a clear packet IP address and sends it to one of the SGMs (SGM 1, for example). 3. SGM 1 checks policy and topology. If encryption is required, it calculates the tunnel owner's IP 4. SGM 1 sends a clear packet to the tunnel owner (SGM 2, for example). From this moment, SGM 2 is the connection and tunnel owner. 5. SGM 2 syncs two backup SGMs: - one for clear (Client 2 Server - calculated accordingly to clear IP) - one for encrypted (Server 2 Client - calculated accordingly to tunnel IPs) - Note: Backup SGMs might be the same for both directions (depends on "dxl calc"). 6. When receiving a reply, it arrives encrypted to SGM 2, and is sent directly to the host after
