network layout

Hi experts,

I have 3 sites which are in different countries, same company; Asia (1), US (LA and NY). Each site has internet connectivity.

I was thinking to create a VPN site to site between Asia and US (LA) then have a VPN from US (LA & NY).

This means when Asia needs to go to NY - it will pass through to LA before going to NY.


The main goal is to have a stable tunnel and I believe that NY is too far from Asia that it will create packet loss. I understand the risk if LA went dark that I wont be able to reach NY and I'm okay with this.

Thoughts?

Depending on your traffic load, you may be making your LA unit do a lot more work than it needs to.  We have tunnels between the US East coast and India, China, etc.  The round trip time runs to 300 ms in some cases which makes VoIP impractical, but for normal data usage (Exchange, Lync, SAP, etc), we don't have any significant problems with it.
