SD-WAN Summary Dashboard

The SD-WAN Summary dashboard (Analysis > SD-WAN Summary) provides a snapshot of your WAN devices and their interfaces. This dashboard helps you to:

  • Identify issues with the underlay and overlay (VPN) topologies.

  • Troubleshoot VPN issues using the existing Health Monitoring, Device Management, and Site-to-Site Monitoring pages.

  • Monitor application performance metrics of WAN interfaces. The threat defense steers application traffic based on these metrics.

A WAN device must meet one of the following criteria:

  • The device must be a VPN peer.

  • The device must have WAN interface.

A WAN interface must meet one of the following criteria:

  • The interface has IP address-based path monitoring enabled on it.

  • The interface has a Policy Based Routing (PBR) policy with at least one application configured to monitor it.

For more information about PBR policy and path monitoring, see Policy Based Routing.

Click Uplink Decisions to view the VPN Troubleshooting page. You can view syslogs with ID: 880001. These syslogs show the threat defense interfaces through which it steers traffic based on the configured PBR policy.

To view the above syslogs and to view the data on this dashboard, ensure that you review Prerequisites for Using SD-WAN Summary Dashboard.

For clusters, this dashboard displays application performance metrics of only the control node and not the data nodes.
