Configuring SD-WAN for internal traffic

After you have configured the overlay and tunnel routes, enable and configure SD-WAN for central management.

Configuring SD-WAN for internal traffic involves the following steps:

1. Enable SD-WAN central management. See Enabling SD-WAN central management.
2. Configure normalized interfaces. See Configuring normalized interfaces .
3. Configure SD-WAN interfaces. See Configuring SD-WAN interface members.
4. Create a loopback interface to use as a health-check server. See Creating a loopback interface.
5. Create a health check server for the loopback interface. See Creating health check servers.
6. Create SD-WAN templates. See Creating SD-WAN templates for branches.
7. Add SD-WAN rules to SD-WAN templates. See Configuring SD-WAN rules.

   SD-WAN rules define how traffic flows in the network.

8. Configure firewall policies. See Configuring firewall policies.

   Firewall policies define whether traffic is permitted to flow and how to inspect flowing traffic.

9. Disable stateful inspection on hubs. See Disabling stateful inspection on hubs.
