Overview of SD-WAN Prerequisites
With Orchestrator, you create virtual network overlays to apply business intent to network segments.
Provisioning a device is managed by applying profiles.
Interface Labels associate each interface with a use.
LAN labels refer to traic type, such as VoIP,data, or replication.
WAN labels refer to the service or connection type, such as MPLS,internet, or Verizon.

Deployment Profiles
configure the interfaces and map the labels to them, to characterize the
appliance.
Business Intent Overlays
use the Labels specified in Deployment Profiles to define how traic
is routed and optimized between sites. These overlays can specify preferred paths and can link
bonding policies based on
application
,
VLAN
, or
subnet
, independent of the brand and physical
routing attributes of the underlay.
This diagram shows the basic architecture and capabilities of Overlays.
Including a new appliance into the SD-WAN fabric consists of two basic steps:
1. Registration and discovery.
Aer you
Accept
the discovered appliance, the
Configuration
Wizard opens.
2. Provisioning.
Because the wizard prompts you to select profiles, it is easier to create these
ahead of time.
The following figure shows the process of installing and provisioning an appliance for SD-WAN.
