Airheads Tech Talks: SD-WAN-Features Introduction and Onboarding/ZTP

Software-defined wide area networking (SD-WAN) is a technology shift towards solutions that are more agile, open, and cloud integrated. SD-WAN solutions should deliver a secure, service provider independent network with enterprise-level performance over different WAN technologies. However, while SD-WAN solves a real IT problem, it only addresses one of the problems faced when dealing with distributed locations. Organizations often roll out and operate distributed, heterogeneous networks with small, centralized teams. These distributed networks offer many services besides just WAN connectivity. Branch networks need wired and wireless local area network (LAN), security and policy enforcement, and of course, WAN interconnect. The software-defined branch extends the concepts around SD-WAN to all elements in the branch, delivering a full-stack solution that addresses wired and wireless LAN, security and policy enforcement, and, of course, WAN connectivity.
