Creating SD-WAN interface members

Create the following SD-WAN interface members:

  • OL_MPLS
  • OL_INET
  • port2
  • port3

Keep the following considerations in mind:

Property

Description
Name Ensure that you add the suffix _0 for OL_MPLS and OL_INET to indicate overlay. For example, OL_MPLS_0 and OL_INET_0.
Gateway Make sure to specify the remote gateway for the overlay interfaces.
Per-Device Mapping Toggle ON.

Advanced Options

Priority

Make sure to specify the priority for the OL_MPLS and OL_INET interfaces is higher than port2 and port3.

This will redirect the traffic that does not match an SD-WAN rule to the underlays in port2 and port3, instead of using ECMP for all the interface members of the SD-WAN.

To add SD-WAN interface members:
  1. Go to Device Manager > SD-WAN.
  2. In the tree menu, click Interface Members.
  3. In the toolbar, click Create New.

    The Create New WAN Interface pane opens.

  4. In the Name box, type a name for the interface, such as OL_MPLS_0.
  5. In the Normalized Interface list, select the normalized interface.
  6. Toggle Per-Device Mapping to ON.
  7. Add per-device mappings:
    1. Under Per-Device Mapping, click Create New.
    2. In the Mapped Device list, select a device.
    3. In the Gateway box, type the remote gateway.
    4. Under Advanced Options, set priority.
    5. Click OK.

      The per-device mapping is added.

    6. Repeat this step to add all devices.
  8. Expand Advanced Options, and set priority.
  9. Click OK.

    The interface member is added.

  10. Repeat this procedure to add all the interface members.
