The Viptela SD-WAN solution is an enterprise-grade WAN architecture overlay that authorizes digital and cloud transformation for enterprises.
It fully integrates routing, security, centralized policy, and orchestration into large-scale networks. It is a multi-tenant, cloud-delivered, highly automated, secure, scalable, and application-aware with analytics.
The Viptela SD-WAN is composed of separate orchestration, management, control, and data planes:
The orchestration plane assists in the automatic onboarding of the SD-WAN routers into the SD-WAN overlay.
The management plane is responsible for the central configuration and monitoring.
The control plane builds and maintains the network topology and decides on where traffic flows.
The data plane is responsible for forwarding packets based on decisions from the control plane.
