- vSmart Controller
- Control plane/brains of the solution.
- Managed via the CLI or (most likely and recommended) by vManage.
- Post router authentication, there is permanent DTLS tunnel between each vManage and each vEdge/cEdge.
- DTLS tunnels are used to create OMP neighborship between each router.
- vSmart controller uses OMP to determine topology and calculate best routes to different destinations across SD-WAN fabric.
- Services vSmart offers (configured on vManage)
- VPN segmentation
- Traffic engineering
- Service chaining.
