Fabric Overlay Orchestrator
The Fabric Overlay Orchestrator feature is an easy-to-use GUI wizard that simplifies the process of configuring a self-orchestrated SD-WAN overlay within a single Security Fabric. This feature is self-orchestrated since no additional tool or device, aside from the FortiGates themselves, is required to orchestrate this configuration. An SD-WAN overlay configuration consists of IPsec and BGP configuration settings.
Currently, the Fabric Overlay Orchestrator supports a single hub architecture and builds upon an existing Security Fabric configuration. This feature configures the root FortiGate as the SD-WAN overlay hub and the downstream first-level FortiGates as the spokes.
After configuring the Fabric Overlay, you can complete the SD-WAN deployment by configuring SD-WAN rules.
If you cannot view the VPN > Fabric Overlay Orchestrator tree menu, configure the FortiGate as a root or a downstream device in the Security Fabric. See Configuring the root FortiGate and downstream FortiGates for more details. |
The Fabric Overlay Orchestrator does not work when VDOM mode is enabled. |
