Which IPsec design solution supports direct spoke-to-spoke communications across the Internet and easy provisioning of new sites?

The correct answer is D. DMVPN. DMVPN enables dynamic spoke-to-spoke tunnels using NHRP and a hub-and-spoke provisioning model that makes adding new sites simple.

Why each option

DMVPN enables dynamic spoke-to-spoke tunnels using NHRP and a hub-and-spoke provisioning model that makes adding new sites simple.

Afully meshed direct IPsec

Fully meshed direct IPsec requires a separate tunnel and crypto configuration between every pair of sites, making provisioning new sites operationally complex at scale.

Bfully meshed IPsec with GRE tunnels

Fully meshed IPsec with GRE tunnels still requires O(n^2) peer configurations across all sites and does not support dynamic spoke-to-spoke tunnel creation.

CGET VPN

GET VPN is designed for any-to-any connectivity over private MPLS networks using a trusted group encryption model and does not support dynamic spoke-to-spoke tunnels over the public Internet.

DDMVPNCorrect

DMVPN uses NHRP (Next Hop Resolution Protocol) to dynamically resolve spoke addresses, allowing on-demand direct spoke-to-spoke IPsec tunnels to be built without pre-configuration between every pair of sites. New spokes only require configuration pointing to the hub, which dramatically simplifies provisioning as the network grows.
