Configuring CloudMesh for Sites

The purpose of this Use Case, which is based on "Use Case 1", is to provide full mesh connectivity between all the Branch Office Sites. The user traffic between the Branch Office Sites is managed and routed by the CloudMesh Core infrastructure and exits the CloudMesh private network through the Internet at the closest of the destination Sites.

This section describes how to configure CloudMesh in your network, between Branch Office 1 ip|engine and Branch Office 2 ip|engine.

One tunnel is created per WAN Router interface after you have defined the appropriate parameters in the SD-WAN Orchestrator.

Note: Using CloudMesh requires that all ip|engines are defined as 'spokes'.

Prerequisites

You can use the CloudMesh feature of the SD-WAN Orchestrator if:

you have purchased two licenses: Edge or Edge HA for the appliance, and CloudMesh for the domain. Refer to "Viewing Licenses"
Ipanema Support has activated CloudMesh for your Customer account
