SD-WAN Gateway Installation Procedures

This section describes the SD-WAN Gateway installation procedures.

In general, installing the SD-WAN Gateway involves the following steps:

1. Create SD-WAN Gateway on SD-WAN Orchestrator and make a note of the activation key.
2. Configure SD-WAN Gateway on SD-WAN Orchestrator.
3. Create the cloud-init file.
4. Create the VM in VMware or KVM.
5. Boot the SD-WAN Gateway VM and ensure the SD-WAN Gateway cloud-init initializes properly. At this stage, the SD-WAN Gateway should already activate itself against the SD-WAN Orchestrator.
6. Verify connectivity and disable cloud-init.

Important: SD-WAN Gateway supports both the virtual switch and SR-IOV. This guide specifies the SR-IOV as an optional configuration step.
