What is SD-WAN ?
Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) is an overlay architecture that overcomes the biggest
drawbacks of traditional
WAN. SD-WAN builds a secure, unified connectivity over any transport (MPLS,
Broadband, LTE, VSAT etc.)
and provides simplified operations with centralized management, policy control and
application visibility
across the enterprise.

STEPS TO TROUBLESHOOT
Step 1 When analyzing a network problem, make a clear problem statement. You should
define the problem in terms of a set of symptoms and potential causes.
To properly analyze the problem, identify the general symptoms and then ascertain
what kinds of problems (causes) could result in these symptoms. For example, hosts
might not be responding to service requests from clients (a symptom). Possible
causes might include a misconfigured host, bad interface cards, or missing router
configuration commands.
Step 2 Gather the facts that you need to help isolate possible causes.
Ask questions of affected users, network administrators, managers, and other key
people. Collect information from sources such as network management systems,
protocol analyzer traces, output from router diagnostic commands, or software
release notes.
Step 3 Consider possible problems based on the facts that you gathered. Using the
facts, you can eliminate some of the potential problems from your list.
Depending on the data, for example, you might be able to eliminate hardware as a
problem so that you can focus on software problems. At every opportunity, try to
narrow the number of potential problems so that you can create an efficient plan of
action.
Step 4 Create an action plan based on the remaining potential problems. Begin with
the most likely problem, and devise a plan in which only one variable is
manipulated.
Changing only one variable at a time enables you to reproduce a given solution to a
specific problem. If you alter more than one variable simultaneously, you might
solve the problem, but identifying the specific change that eliminated the symptom
becomes far more difficult and will not help you solve the same problem if it
occurs in the future.
Step 5 Implement the action plan, performing each step carefully while testing to
see whether the symptom disappears.
Step 6 Whenever you change a variable, be sure to gather results. Generally, you
should use the same method of gathering facts that you used in Step 2 (that is,
working with the key people affected, in conjunction with utilizing your diagnostic
tools).
Step 7 Analyze the results to determine whether the problem has been resolved. If
it has, then the process is complete.
Step 8 If the problem has not been resolved, you must create an action plan based
on the next most likely problem in your list. Return to Step 4, change one variable
at a time, and repeat the process until the problem is solved.

There is no prerequisites however should have basic understanding of SD-WAN Viptela
Architecture
Description
The "Build Your Own Cisco SD-WAN (Viptela) Lab" course gives you deep-dive training
about how to design, deploy, configure, and manage your Own Cisco SD-WAN Viptela
LAB.
• Deploy and configure vManage, vBond and vSmart with initial configuration.
• Generate CSR and utilize local CA to generate root-ca and sign certificates.
you will learn how to deploy, install and configure SD-WAN controllers. Moreover,
we will also investigate installing enterprise root CA chain, which is needed when
using an Enterprise CA server.
