HP Continuous Access EVA 3 site configurations

This section describes the following HP Continuous Access EVA 3-site configurations:
• HP Continuous Access EVA 3-site configuration with four MPX200 routers
• HP Continuous Access EVA 3-site configuration with six MPX200 routers
• HP Continuous Access EVA 3-site configuration with eight MPX200 routers
• 3-site configuration with six gateways and full inter-site connectivity
The first three configurations provide a fan-in or fan-out relationship between the sites. The fourth
configuration provides a peer-to-peer relationship between all sites.
Figure 79 shows connectivity for three sites using four MPX200 routers, which implement the
minimum-level and lowest-cost connectivity for a 3-site configuration.
