IPSEC Tunnel between 5 locations

I have 5 differnt locations, all of which have a Sophos UTM9 firewall. To connect our telephony system, all 5 locations need to be reachable.

I have to possibilities

a) Build an IPSEC tunnel for each location on each firewall. This makes 4 Tunnels on each Sophos UTM9

b) Build a single IPSEC  tunnel on each Sophos adding the remote networks accordingly in that tunnel 

What is best practice?

Thank you, Matthias

  • I am fine with any flow :) I was just wondering if a) or b) is more efficient or what is the downside of a) or b).
