Configuration Details
A DMVPN Spoke is configured with one or more hub IP addresses. DMVPN hub IP addresses are typically static, such as at a corporate headquarters. DMVPN spoke IP addresses may be static, or dynamic. For example a DMVPN spoke router can be configured as a DHCP client on a DSL, cable provider's network or even be behind a NAT (Network Address Translation) Gateway. The spoke router is configured with the hub's IP address, allowing it to establish a tunnel with the hub router.
A key feature of DMVPN is that the hub router only needs a single tunnel interface to be configured, and does not need separate configuration sections for each of the spoke routers. This allows spoke VPN routers to be deployed without the need to configure additional peers on the hub(s). It also significantly reduces the amount of configuration required on the hub router.

Famous quotes containing the word details:
“There was a time when the average reader read a novel simply for the moral he could get out of it, and however naïve that may have been, it was a good deal less naïve than some of the limited objectives he has now. Today novels are considered to be entirely concerned with the social or economic or psychological forces that they will by necessity exhibit, or with those details of daily life that are for the good novelist only means to some deeper end.”
—Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)
