You are tasked to architect a new IPsec deployment with the following criteria: - There are two HQ sites that all satellite offices must connect to. - The satellite offices do not need to…

Redundant is a characteristic of a design (e.g., redundant links or hubs) rather than a primary network topology that defines how all sites connect and communicate.

A hub-and-spoke topology allows all satellite offices (spokes) to connect to central HQ sites (hubs) without requiring direct connections between spokes, thereby satisfying the requirement for no direct satellite-to-satellite communication and minimizing tunnel count.

A partial mesh topology would involve some satellite offices connecting directly to each other, violating the requirement that satellite offices do not need to communicate with one another.

A fully meshed topology would require every site to have a tunnel to every other site, resulting in a significantly higher number of tunnels and enabling direct satellite-to-satellite communication, which is explicitly not required.
