A telecommunications system using a hose model having a VPN network. The system includes a plurality of sites in communication with the VPN network. Each site requires an amount of bandwidth to introduce hose into the network. The system includes a network manager in communication with the sites through the network. The manager chooses a predetermined number of the sites as a function of their amount of bandwidth required to introduce hose into the network, establishes shortest paths between each of the chosen sites, and uses the established shortest paths for sites not chosen to send hose to and receive hose from the network. A method for provisioning VPNs in a hose model including the steps of determining an amount of bandwidth that a plurality of sites of a VPN network require to introduce hose into the network and receive hose from the network. There is the step of choosing a predetermined number of the sites as a function of their amount of bandwidth required to introduce hose into the network. There is the step of establishing shortest paths between each of the chosen sites. There is the step of using the established shortest paths for sites not chosen to send hose to and receive hose from the network.
