A company requires encryption from its data center router to AWS VPN termination. A supported Direct Connect circuit offers MACsec. Why might the design still require an IPsec VPN?
Published
- MACsec protects the supported Ethernet link, while IPsec supplies the required tunnel protection.
- IPsec can only run over the public internet and never over Direct Connect.
- MACsec provides application-layer authorization for all AWS API requests.
- Direct Connect encrypts all traffic end to end without either MACsec or IPsec.
