What traffic you tunnel does not matter (i.e. if you use split-tunneling
or tunnel all traffic to the hub) the topology is the same.

The diagrams show four hosts as I though that illustrates the difference
between the two approaches a bit better (a full mesh with three hosts
doesn't really illustrate the exponential increase in the number of
required connections).

You could do that but then you'd have to add a passthrough policy for
192.168.1.0/24 on the first gateway (otherwise it would tunnel that
traffic too).  Or just set leftsubnet=192.168.2.0/24,192.168.3.0/24 on
the server in this config so the traffic selector gets narrowed and the
first gateway only tunnels traffic for these two subnets.

Tobias
