Abstract:
This document explores the complexities involved in managing large
scale Software Defined WAN (SD-WAN) overlay networks, along with
various SD-WAN scenarios. Its objective is to illustrate how a
BGP-based control plane can be used to manage these overlay
networks by distributing edge service reachability information,
WAN port attributes, and underlay path details, thereby minimizing
manual provisioning. In such deployments, BGP can provide a
standards-based mechanism for distributing information that may
otherwise be exchanged using proprietary SD-WAN control-plane
mechanisms.
