Looks obvious, but is it? In one hand, we want the capability to reach anywhere we're allowed to from home. OTOH, if anything in my home is reachable from anywhere, we are back to the firewall paradigm.
There is an alternate model based on L3 overlays that was presented in various places under names such as route projection, community of interest or on-demand VPNs. That model forms dynamic overlays that act as L3 VLANs. Prefixes are no more injected in the main infrastructure but only projected within the overlay. This allows the model to scale with good mobility properties since an overlay separates the locator and the identifier, which BTW can be of different Address Families. I wanted to ask for a BOF in Taipei to discuss that model. Would anyone be interested?
