Description-en: secure anycast tunneling protocol
Anytun is an implementation of the secure anycast tunneling protocol. It
uses an easy openvpn style interface and makes it possible to build
redundant VPN clusters with load balancing between servers. VPN servers
share a single IP address. Adding and removing VPN Servers is done by the
routing protocol, so no client changes have to be made when additional VPN
servers are added or removed. It is possible to realise global load
balancing based on shortest BGP routes by simply announcing the address
space of the tunnel servers at multiple locations.
.
Currently ethernet, ipv4 and ipv6 tunnels are supported by the
implementation. However the protocol allows one to tunnel every ETHERTYPE
protocol.
