Using the service

• Web browser interface: Yes
• Using the web interface: VMware Operations create a customer-specific tenant within an SD-WAN; Orchestrator. The monitoring, addition, configuration, and deletion of SD-WAN; edges are handled through the Orchestrators' web-based service. The; administrator creates site profiles that represent the types of edges to be used; and the features required. The profile includes information related to the devices; interfaces, routing protocols, firewall configuration, and traffic policies. SD-WAN; edge devices are then added to the Orchestrator and mapped to a profile that; defines the configured policies. Profiles ensure simple and consistent; configuration of the SD-WAN network. SD-WAN Edges are added to the network; using Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) minimising the need for smart hands activity.; Any modifications needed on the Edge, i.e. localised addressing and route; peering, are centrally handled through SD-WAN Orchestrator. Users of the SDWAN Orchestrator service are allocated to roles that control their ability to; configure and view. This ensures that only approved users can make; configuration changes and modify privileged elements of the SD-WAN network.; SD-WAN Orchestrator is available in both cloud-based or on-premises versions.; The cloud-hosted version is completely managed by VMware for resiliency,; security, and scale. That responsibility falls onto the customer for the on-premise; version of Orchestrator.

• Approach to resilience: VMware SD-WAN Orchestrator Disaster Recovery (DR) is provided by database replication from the; live Orchestrator to a hot-spare at an alternate location. Operations tools monitor the live system; and trigger the failover to hot-spare when an offline condition is confirmed. VMware SD-WAN; Gateway the solution uses multiple logical gateways to provide high availability service to the edges.; Each logical gateway can be scaled horizontally for high availability. VMware SD-WAN Edge operate; in a High Availability (HA) configuration leveraging an Ethernet interconnect on the GE1 port of each; device. The configuration on the Orchestrator causes the active edge to reserve its GE1 port for an; expected HA peer. The HA edges exchanges configuration information, software updates, current; traffic flow, and WAN link information so the second unit does not require explicit configuration.; During an HA failover event, the failover is triggered to the standby device in a sub-second fashion; such that active traffic sessions are maintained.
