Remote Visibility and Control

From the main menu, select Settings -> Remote Visibility and Control to add and manage RVC destinations.

A RVC destination means that there is no SD-WAN appliance on the related Site. ExtremeCloud SD-WAN allows traffic of an unequipped Site to be measured and controlled by the appliances of some remote equipped Sites. Only one RVC destination is authorized per Site. A RVC destination is mainly identified by one or several LAN subnet(s).

A group of remote appliances cooperate to measure the traffic (Application Visibility) and detect flow congestions (Application Control) of the RVC destination. Note that the following measurements are not done for a RVC:

Delay/Jitter/Loss
measurement and control of shadow traffic (traffic between RVC destination sites)
end-to-end bandwidth tracking

Adding a RVC destination

1 In the General panel, enter the Name of the RVC destination.
2 Configure the LAN of the RVC destination which includes one subnet at least: click Add Subnet twice and enter the Subnet IP Address and Prefix Length (24).
3 Click Done.
4 Configure the WAN linked to the RVC destination by selecting the WAN Service from the list, if it has been already define, otherwise, create the WAN Service.

Note that the 'Not Specified' option corresponds to any network or a combination of several networks.

5 In the Access Bandwidth fields, define the up and down throughput (in kilobits per second) allocated to the WAN.
6 Optionally select an Overlay; you can also create one.
7 Validate your input by clicking Done.

All RVC destinations are listed in the Remote Visibility and Control list. You can enable/disable or delete them.
