One might look at MS's documentation about deploying end-to-end ipsec in their enterprise for one example of peer-to-peer ubiquitous ipsec.
This is interesting and kind of what I'm looking for. Do you have a pointer to this documentation?
sadly I can't find what I once read :( damned webcrawler search!!!
My apologies for not having defined "large scale" in my original mail. What I had in mind was, basically, environments ranging with multiple datacenters (possibly across the globe) pushing tens of gb/s or more.
that's probably a different problem to solve, unless you wanted to push the crypto down to the server/workstation level, which seems like a more reasonable answer, for a number of reasons, provided you can do key management and fault isolation. One good reason to not do link encryption is: "the problem is that whackadoodle box you put outside the router!" :( most often those boxes can't do light-level monitoring, loopbacks, etc... all the stuff your NOC wants to do when 'link flapped,doh!' happens. -chris
