View Connected Edges

The following example shows the number of connected edges. It is recommended to have the tunnel count below the supported value to reduce the CPU load and recovery time that follows a restart.

vcadmin@vcg1-example:~$ /opt/vc/bin/debug.py --list_edges 2
{
  "vceCount": 156
}
vcadmin@vcg1-example:~$ 

If the number of connected Edges approaches the supported value for a Gateway, then customers should be moved to alternate Gateways to reduce the Edge count. If the number of connected Edges exceeds the supported value for a Gateway, then this movement of Edges to alternate Gateways should be treated as critical.

Note: A single VMware SD-WAN Gateway deployed with 4 cores supports a maximum of 2000 connected Edges. A Gateway deployed with 8 cores supports a maximum of 4000 connected Edges. You will need more Gateways in your pool for horizontal scale if you reach this limit.
