| Enhanced HA Support for LTE Interface in 510-LTE and 610-LTE | In the Enhanced High Availability (eHA) mode in which an Active Edge detects different WAN link(s) connected to a Standby Edge when compared to the link(s) connected to itself, an additional support is added to detect and use the LTE link on the Standby Edge for forwarding the LAN-side traffic to the Internet through the LTE link, if the Active Edge fails. See Enhanced HA. |
| Enhancements to Conditional Backhaul | Whenever there is a CSS (Zscaler) link failure on a VMware SD-WAN Edge, while the Public Internet is still up, the Policy-based Conditional Backhaul provides the SD-WAN Edge the ability to failover Internet-bound traffic that use CSS link based on the status of CSS tunnel, irrespective of the status of the public links. See Conditional Backhaul. |

| Multi-hop BFD | While BFD on Edge and Gateway supports directly connected BFD Sessions, you need to configure BFD peers in conjunction with multi-hop BGP neighbors. The multi-hop BFD option supports this requirement. See Configure BFD. |
| Multi-hop BGP | Enables to configure multi-hop for the BGP peers that are not connected directly. See Configure BGP. |
| Support for Multiple IP address on a single VLAN | Enables to add secondary IP addresses to a VLAN in addition to the primary IP address, to increase the number of host addresses for a network segment. See Configure VLAN for Edges. |
