Introduction

The intention of this document is to define some of the common concepts, use cases, and terminology in the Fortinet Secure SD-WAN solution. Once we have defined what we aim to solve with SD-WAN, our next step is to design our network. The design portion is covered in the Fortinet SD-WAN Reference Architecture Guide, which covers the Fortinet technology involved in deploying various types of SD-WAN designs, along with considerations and best practices. Once we have defined and designed our network, our next step is to deploy. Fortinet’s SD-WAN Deployment Guide will cover the how-to configuration for some of the common architectures and designs covered in the Reference Architecture.
