SD-WAN Deployment for MSSPs

Segmentation over single overlay

Segmentation over single overlay

In this example, we assume PE VRF=1 and two Customer segments (CE VRFs) 11 and 12.
The snippets below use the "Dynamic BGP on Loopback" design.

This topic includes reference configurations for the following components:

Spoke

  1. Enable subnet overlap:

        config system settings
          set allow-subnet-overlap enable
        end
  2. Assign all the WAN-facing interfaces to the PE VRF, including underlays, overlays, and the Loopback used for BGP termination:

        config system interface
          edit "Lo"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "port1"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "port4"
            set vrf 1
          next      
          edit "H1_ISP1"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "H1_MPLS"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "H2_ISP1"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "H2_MPLS"
            set vrf 1
          next            
        end
  3. Assign all the LAN-facing interfaces to the respective CE VRFs:

        config system interface
          edit "port5"
            set vrf 11
          next
          edit "port6"
            set vrf 12
          next
        end
  4. Enable vpn-id-ipip encapsulation on the overlays:

        config vpn ipsec phase1-interface
          edit "H1_ISP1"
            set encapsulation vpn-id-ipip
          next
          edit "H1_MPLS"
            set encapsulation vpn-id-ipip
          next
          edit "H2_ISP1"
            set encapsulation vpn-id-ipip
          next
          edit "H2_MPLS"
            set encapsulation vpn-id-ipip
          next
        end
  5. Configure VRF parameters for BGP:

        config router bgp
          config vrf
            edit "1"
              set role pe
            next
            edit "11"
              set role "ce"
              set rd "65000:11"
              set import-rt "65000:11"
              set export-rt "65000:11"
            next
            edit "12"
              set role "ce"
              set rd "65000:12"
              set import-rt "65000:12"
              set export-rt "65000:12"
            next
          end
        end
    Note

    This configuration must be identical on all Spokes and Hubs in the SD-WAN network.

  6. Configure VPNv4 settings for BGP neighbors and advertise all the CE VRF networks:

        config router bgp
          config neighbor
            edit 10.200.1.253
              set soft-reconfiguration enable
              set soft-reconfiguration-vpnv4 enable
              set capability-graceful-restart enable
              set capability-graceful-restart-vpnv4 enable
            next
            edit 10.200.1.254
              set soft-reconfiguration enable
              set soft-reconfiguration-vpnv4 enable
              set capability-graceful-restart enable
              set capability-graceful-restart-vpnv4 enable
            next
          end
          config network
            edit 1
              set prefix 10.0.1.0/24
            next
            edit 2
              set prefix 10.0.101.0/24
            next
          end
        end
  7. If Dynamic BGP is enabled, configure VPNv4 settings also on the dynamic peering:

    config router bgp
        config neighbor-group
            edit "DYN_EDGE"
              set soft-reconfiguration-vpnv4 enable
              set capability-graceful-restart-vpnv4 enable
              # Ready for multi-regional deployment
              set route-map-out-vpnv4 "LAN_OUT"
            next
        end
    end
Note

The remaining configuration is identical to the standard "Dynamic BGP on Loopback" configuration from an earlier section.

Hub

  1. Enable subnet overlap:

        config system settings
          set allow-subnet-overlap enable
        end
  2. Assign all the WAN-facing interfaces to the PE VRF, including underlays, overlays, and the Loopback used for BGP termination:

        config system interface
          edit "Lo"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "port1"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "port4"
            set vrf 1
          next      
          edit "EDGE_ISP1"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "EDGE_MPLS"
            set vrf 1
          next
        end
  3. Assign all the LAN-facing interfaces to the respective CE VRFs:

        config system interface
          edit "port5"
            set vrf 11
          next
          edit "port6"
            set vrf 12
          next
        end
  4. Enable vpn-id-ipip encapsulation on the overlays:

        config vpn ipsec phase1-interface
          edit "EDGE_ISP1"
            set encapsulation vpn-id-ipip
          next
          edit "EDGE_MPLS"
            set encapsulation vpn-id-ipip
          next
        end
  5. Configure VRF parameters for BGP:

        config router bgp
          config vrf
            edit "1"
              set role pe
            next
            edit "11"
              set role "ce"
              set rd "65000:11"
              set import-rt "65000:11"
              set export-rt "65000:11"
            next
            edit "12"
              set role "ce"
              set rd "65000:12"
              set import-rt "65000:12"
              set export-rt "65000:12"
            next
          end
        end
    Note

    This configuration must be identical on all Spokes and Hubs in the SD-WAN network.

  6. Configure VPNv4 settings for BGP neighbors and advertise all the CE VRF networks:

        config router bgp
          config neighbor-group
            edit "EDGE"
              set soft-reconfiguration-vpnv4 enable
              set route-reflector-client-vpnv4 enable
              set capability-graceful-restart-vpnv4 enable      
            next
          end
          config network
            edit 2
              set prefix 10.1.0.0/24
            next
            edit 3
              set prefix 10.1.100.0/24
            next
          end
        end
Note

The remaining configuration is identical to the standard "Dynamic BGP on Loopback" configuration from an earlier section.

Providing Internet access

The following configuration must be added on the Spoke, in order to provide Direct Internet Access to the CE VRF=11:

  1. On hardware appliances only, enable multi-VDOM mode, in order to unhide the npu_link interface:

        config system global
          set vdom-mode multi-vdom
        end
  2. Configure an inter-VRF link between the CE VRF=11 and the PE VRF=1. On hardware appliances, use the npu_link for this purpose. On virtual appliances, use the software-based vdom-link (shown in the snippets below):

        config system vdom-link
          edit "vrf11_leak"
          next
        end
        config system interface
          edit "vrf11_leak0"
            set type vdom-link
            set vrf 1
            set vdom 'root'
            set ip 10.200.255.23/31
            set allowaccess ping
          next
          edit "vrf11_leak1"
            set type vdom-link
            set vrf 11
            set vdom 'root'
            set ip 10.200.255.22/31
            set allowaccess ping
          next
        end
  3. Add a static default route to the CE VRF=11, pointing to the newly created inter-VRF link:

        config router static
          edit 10011
            set gateway 10.200.255.23
            set device vrf11_leak1
          next
        end
  4. In Firewall Policy configuration, allow each traffic hop independently. Below we enable SNAT both on the inter-VRF link and on the Internet-facing interface. We also use System Zones to simplify Firewall Policy configuration.

        config system zone
          edit "lan_zone"
            append interface port5
          next    
          edit "pevrf_leak_zone"
            append interface "vrf11_leak0"
          next
          edit "vrfs_leak_zone"
            append interface "vrf11_leak1"
          next
        end
        config firewall policy
          edit 2
            set name "Internet (to PE)"
            set srcintf 'lan_zone'
            set dstintf 'vrfs_leak_zone'
            set srcaddr "all"
            set dstaddr "all"
            set action accept
            set schedule "always"
            set service "ALL"
            set utm-status enable
            set ssl-ssh-profile certificate-inspection
            set application-list "default"
            set logtraffic all
            set nat enable
          next
          edit 3
            set name "Internet (DIA)"
            set srcintf 'pevrf_leak_zone'
            set dstintf "underlay"
            set srcaddr "all"
            set dstaddr "all"
            set action accept
            set schedule "always"
            set service "ALL"
            set utm-status enable
            set ssl-ssh-profile certificate-inspection
            set application-list "default"
            set logtraffic all
            set nat enable
          next

Segmentation over single overlay

Segmentation over single overlay

In this example, we assume PE VRF=1 and two Customer segments (CE VRFs) 11 and 12.
The snippets below use the "Dynamic BGP on Loopback" design.

This topic includes reference configurations for the following components:

Spoke

  1. Enable subnet overlap:

        config system settings
          set allow-subnet-overlap enable
        end
  2. Assign all the WAN-facing interfaces to the PE VRF, including underlays, overlays, and the Loopback used for BGP termination:

        config system interface
          edit "Lo"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "port1"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "port4"
            set vrf 1
          next      
          edit "H1_ISP1"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "H1_MPLS"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "H2_ISP1"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "H2_MPLS"
            set vrf 1
          next            
        end
  3. Assign all the LAN-facing interfaces to the respective CE VRFs:

        config system interface
          edit "port5"
            set vrf 11
          next
          edit "port6"
            set vrf 12
          next
        end
  4. Enable vpn-id-ipip encapsulation on the overlays:

        config vpn ipsec phase1-interface
          edit "H1_ISP1"
            set encapsulation vpn-id-ipip
          next
          edit "H1_MPLS"
            set encapsulation vpn-id-ipip
          next
          edit "H2_ISP1"
            set encapsulation vpn-id-ipip
          next
          edit "H2_MPLS"
            set encapsulation vpn-id-ipip
          next
        end
  5. Configure VRF parameters for BGP:

        config router bgp
          config vrf
            edit "1"
              set role pe
            next
            edit "11"
              set role "ce"
              set rd "65000:11"
              set import-rt "65000:11"
              set export-rt "65000:11"
            next
            edit "12"
              set role "ce"
              set rd "65000:12"
              set import-rt "65000:12"
              set export-rt "65000:12"
            next
          end
        end
    Note

    This configuration must be identical on all Spokes and Hubs in the SD-WAN network.

  6. Configure VPNv4 settings for BGP neighbors and advertise all the CE VRF networks:

        config router bgp
          config neighbor
            edit 10.200.1.253
              set soft-reconfiguration enable
              set soft-reconfiguration-vpnv4 enable
              set capability-graceful-restart enable
              set capability-graceful-restart-vpnv4 enable
            next
            edit 10.200.1.254
              set soft-reconfiguration enable
              set soft-reconfiguration-vpnv4 enable
              set capability-graceful-restart enable
              set capability-graceful-restart-vpnv4 enable
            next
          end
          config network
            edit 1
              set prefix 10.0.1.0/24
            next
            edit 2
              set prefix 10.0.101.0/24
            next
          end
        end
  7. If Dynamic BGP is enabled, configure VPNv4 settings also on the dynamic peering:

    config router bgp
        config neighbor-group
            edit "DYN_EDGE"
              set soft-reconfiguration-vpnv4 enable
              set capability-graceful-restart-vpnv4 enable
              # Ready for multi-regional deployment
              set route-map-out-vpnv4 "LAN_OUT"
            next
        end
    end
Note

The remaining configuration is identical to the standard "Dynamic BGP on Loopback" configuration from an earlier section.

Hub

  1. Enable subnet overlap:

        config system settings
          set allow-subnet-overlap enable
        end
  2. Assign all the WAN-facing interfaces to the PE VRF, including underlays, overlays, and the Loopback used for BGP termination:

        config system interface
          edit "Lo"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "port1"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "port4"
            set vrf 1
          next      
          edit "EDGE_ISP1"
            set vrf 1
          next
          edit "EDGE_MPLS"
            set vrf 1
          next
        end
  3. Assign all the LAN-facing interfaces to the respective CE VRFs:

        config system interface
          edit "port5"
            set vrf 11
          next
          edit "port6"
            set vrf 12
          next
        end
  4. Enable vpn-id-ipip encapsulation on the overlays:

        config vpn ipsec phase1-interface
          edit "EDGE_ISP1"
            set encapsulation vpn-id-ipip
          next
          edit "EDGE_MPLS"
            set encapsulation vpn-id-ipip
          next
        end
  5. Configure VRF parameters for BGP:

        config router bgp
          config vrf
            edit "1"
              set role pe
            next
            edit "11"
              set role "ce"
              set rd "65000:11"
              set import-rt "65000:11"
              set export-rt "65000:11"
            next
            edit "12"
              set role "ce"
              set rd "65000:12"
              set import-rt "65000:12"
              set export-rt "65000:12"
            next
          end
        end
    Note

    This configuration must be identical on all Spokes and Hubs in the SD-WAN network.

  6. Configure VPNv4 settings for BGP neighbors and advertise all the CE VRF networks:

        config router bgp
          config neighbor-group
            edit "EDGE"

Note

The remaining configuration is identical to the standard "Dynamic BGP on Loopback" configuration from an earlier section.

Providing Internet access

The following configuration must be added on the Spoke, in order to provide Direct Internet Access to the CE VRF=11:

  1. On hardware appliances only, enable multi-VDOM mode, in order to unhide the npu_link interface:

        config system global
          set vdom-mode multi-vdom
        end
  2. Configure an inter-VRF link between the CE VRF=11 and the PE VRF=1. On hardware appliances, use the npu_link for this purpose. On virtual appliances, use the software-based vdom-link (shown in the snippets below):

        config system vdom-link
          edit "vrf11_leak"
          next
        end
        config system interface
          edit "vrf11_leak0"
            set type vdom-link
            set vrf 1
            set vdom 'root'
            set ip 10.200.255.23/31
            set allowaccess ping
          next
          edit "vrf11_leak1"
            set type vdom-link
            set vrf 11
            set vdom 'root'
            set ip 10.200.255.22/31
            set allowaccess ping
          next
        end
  3. Add a static default route to the CE VRF=11, pointing to the newly created inter-VRF link:

        config router static
          edit 10011
            set gateway 10.200.255.23
            set device vrf11_leak1
          next
        end
  4. In Firewall Policy configuration, allow each traffic hop independently. Below we enable SNAT both on the inter-VRF link and on the Internet-facing interface. We also use System Zones to simplify Firewall Policy configuration.

        config system zone
          edit "lan_zone"
            append interface port5
          next    
          edit "pevrf_leak_zone"
            append interface "vrf11_leak0"
          next
          edit "vrfs_leak_zone"
            append interface "vrf11_leak1"
          next
        end
        config firewall policy
          edit 2
            set name "Internet (to PE)"
            set srcintf 'lan_zone'
            set dstintf 'vrfs_leak_zone'
            set srcaddr "all"
            set dstaddr "all"
            set action accept
            set schedule "always"
            set service "ALL"
            set utm-status enable
            set ssl-ssh-profile certificate-inspection
            set application-list "default"
            set logtraffic all
            set nat enable
          next
          edit 3
            set name "Internet (DIA)"
            set srcintf 'pevrf_leak_zone'
            set dstintf "underlay"
            set srcaddr "all"
            set dstaddr "all"
            set action accept
            set schedule "always"
            set service "ALL"
            set utm-status enable
            set ssl-ssh-profile certificate-inspection
            set application-list "default"
            set logtraffic all
            set nat enable
          next
