Configuring the Network Policy
The network policy is a combination of configuration settings that manage the behavior of the whole SD-WAN network. It includes network security, appliance templates, overlay management and application group policy.
This topic guides you through the basic steps to enable ExtremeCloud SD-WAN appliances to provide clients with network access.
Note: ExtremeCloud SD-WAN requires only one network policy for all network appliances.
There are multiple tabs as part of the network policy configuration process:
| • | Security |
| • | Templates |
| • | Overlays |
| • | Application Group Policy |
Create the Network Policy
| 1 | Click Configure Policy in the SD-WAN Setup popup window or select Settings -> Policy Configuration from the left main menu. |
| 2 | Click Create Policy. Enter its name and the NTP Server IP address. You can also specify an optional description of the policy. Then click Done at the bottom of the window. |
The Policy Configuration window is refreshed with new data in the Application Group Policy panel.
