This post is dedicated to provide an overview of the Viptela policies. We go into the the details of the various kinds of policies and the overall policy architecture. In our earlier post we had focused on Viptela concept, Viptela SD-WAN components and how to authenticate the vEdges to Viptela cloud and setup basic connectivity between sites.

This article is the first part in the series about SD-WAN technology where we learn step by step what exactly Software Defined WAN (SD-WAN) is, how to build and use it, how and why using this concept could be beneficial for enterprises or even service providers and how to transform the current enterprise WAN to a SD-WAN solution. We are going to start with looking closely at Cisco Viptela product, however later on, we will describe other SD-WAN platforms in a similar manner.
