Support HTTPS performance SLA health checks 7.4.1

Support HTTPS performance SLA health checks 7.4.1

HTTPS is supported for SD-WAN performance SLA health checks. All default HTTP-based health checks have been updated to use HTTPS instead. This includes:

  • Default_AWS
  • Default_FortiGuard
  • Default_Google Search
  • Default_Office_365
Note

After upgrading, the default profiles using HTTP are changed to use HTTPS. Non-default performance SLA health check profiles are not affected after upgrading.

Example 1: applying a default HTTPS health check:

In this example, the Default_AWS health check is applied to an SD-WAN member in the default virtual-wan-link zone.

To apply the Default_AWS health check in an SD-WAN configuration:
  1. Configure SD-WAN:

    config system sdwan
        set status enable
        config zone
            edit "virtual-wan-link"
            next
        end
        config members
            edit 1
                set interface "port1"
                set gateway 172.16.200.254
                set gateway6 2000:172:16:200::254
            next
        end
        config health-check
            edit "Default_AWS"
                set server "aws.amazon.com"
                set protocol https
                set interval 1000
                set probe-timeout 1000
                set recoverytime 10
                set update-static-route disable
                set members 1
                config sla
                    edit 1
                        set latency-threshold 250
                        set jitter-threshold 50
                        set packetloss-threshold 5
                    next
                end
            next
        end
    end
  2. Verify the health check status:

    # diagnose sys sdwan health-check status Default_AWS
    Health Check(Default_AWS):
    Seq(1 port1): state(alive), packet-loss(0.000%) latency(107.732), jitter(10.425), mos(4.332), bandwidth-up(999920), bandwidth-dw(997555), bandwidth-bi(1997475) sla_map=0x1

Example 2: configuring an IPv6 health check with HTTPS

To configure an IPv6 health check with HTTPS:
config system sdwan
    set status enable
    config zone
        edit "virtual-wan-link"
        next
    end
    config members
        edit 1
            set interface "port1"
            set gateway 172.16.200.254
            set gateway6 2000:172:16:200::254
        next
    end
    config health-check
        edit "ipv6"
            set addr-mode ipv6
            set server "ipv6.google.com"
            set protocol https
            set members 1
            config sla
                edit 1
                    set latency-threshold 250
                    set jitter-threshold 50
                    set packetloss-threshold 5
                next
            end
        next
    end
end
