Avoids Internet Exchange bottlenecks between providers
Reduces round trip latency
• DMVPN Phase 3
Scalable dynamic site-to-site tunnels
Separate DMVPN per transport for path diversity
Per tunnel QOS
NG Encryption – IKEv2 + AES-GCM-256 encryption
• Transport settings
Use the same MTU size on all WAN paths
Bandwidth settings should match offered rate
• Routing Overlay

94. • Community of IT business leaders who exchange ideas and best
practices for implementing Open Networking and Software-Defined
Networking (SDN) designs.
• One of the ONUG working groups is the SD-WAN Working Group
• The SD-WAN working group has determined a set of 10 business
requirements (based on user-developed use cases) that Enterprises
should consider when evaluating SD-WAN solutions.

95. 1. Public and Private Active-Active: Ability for remote site/branch to leverage public and private
WANs in an active/active fashion for business applications.
2. Physical or Virtual CPE: Ability to deploy CPE in a physical or virtual form factor on commodity
hardware.
3. Security and Business policies: A secure hybrid WAN architecture that allows for dynamic traffic
engineering capability across private and public WAN paths as specified by application policy,
prevailing network WAN availability and/or degradation at transport or application layer
performance.
4. App and Performance Aware Dynamic Traffic Eng: Visibility, prioritization and steering of
business critical and real-time applications as per security and corporate governance and
compliance policies.
5. Highly Available & Resilient WAN: A highly available and resilient hybrid WAN environment for
optimal client and application experience.
Top 10 Requirements for SD-WAN
96. 6. L2 and L3 Interoperability: Layer 2 and 3 interoperability with directly connected switch and/or
router.
7. Dashboard Reporting: Site, Application and VPN performance level dashboard reporting.
8. Open API: Open north-bound API for controller access and management, ability to forward specific
log events to network event co-relation manager and/or Security Incident & Event Manager
(SIEM).
9. Zero Touch Deployment: Capability to effect zero touch deployment at branch site with minimal to
no configuration changes on directly connected infrastructure, ensuring agility in provisioning and
deployment.
10. FIPS-140-2: FIPS 140-2 validation certification for cryptography modules/encryption with
automated certificate life cycle management and reporting.
