Hub-Controller Node (HCN)
Hub-Controller Node (HCN) – A VOS device role combining hub and Controller functions for the spokes in its region, typically used when branches sit on a private MPLS network without direct access to a Versa-hosted Controller; spokes tunnel to local HCNs, which alone connect to top-level Controller nodes.
