Configure an SD-WAN Route Group

Before you begin

Before you can enable SD-WAN, you must assign a branch ID to the router, and have one or two Extreme Networks VGVAs configured as part of a VPN Service. Then create a Network Policy with Router Settings.

About this task

An SD-WAN route group is a list of prioritized WAN ports used as a forwarding action in a routing policy. Enable SD-WAN in a network policy to configure policies that make routing decisions based on Layer 7 application service sets, user profiles, incoming LAN interfaces, or source and destination addresses.

Procedure

  1. Select Enable SD-WAN.
  2. Select Add.
  3. Enter a Group Name.
  4. Enter an optional description.
  5. Set the WAN Priority for the following WAN links on routers:
    • WAN0: The highest prioritized Ethernet link in the router template.
    • WAN1: The second highest prioritized Ethernet link in the router template.
    • USB: The WAN link of a connected USB LTE modem.
  6. For Routing Decision Rule, define the following responses to operational faults for your SD-WAN routing decisions:
    • Include Jitter: Select ON to have jitter considered for WAN path changes.
    • Packet Loss: Select an aggressive, normal, or moderate response to packet losses.
    • Latency: Select an aggressive, normal, or moderate response to detected latency.
    • Jitter: (Only if Include Jitter is set to ON): Select an aggressive, normal, or moderate response to jitter.

What to do next

Continue configuring the network policy.
