ABSTRACT:
A system and method for topology constrained routing policy provisioning between a plurality of sites in a Virtual Private Network (VPN) is disclosed. The method comprises enabling graphically defining of relationships between the plurality of sites of the VPN; and automatically generating at least one routing rule for each site of the VPN based at least in part on the defined relationship.
