Efficient use of IPsec tunnels in multi-path environment

Abstract:

A system and method is provided for securing network traffic across a plurality of connections to a computing device without requiring each connection to have its own security association. The system can include an IPsec encoder configured to obtain a datagram and encode a datagram, wherein the IPsec encoder includes a security association that is associated with a computing entity, a packet analyzer configured to associate metadata with the encoded datagram, and a gateway to transmit the encoded datagram using one of the plurality of connections to the computing device.
