Configuring traffic redirection to a Web Security Gateway

The purpose of this Use Case, which is complementary to "Use Case 1", is to enable the connection to a Zscaler Web Security Gateway delivered from the cloud. The Zscaler platform defends against malware, advanced threats, phishing, browser exploits, malicious URLs and botnets. As well as web security, the service offers web filtering, firewalls and anti-spam functions.

This section describes how to configure this gateway in your network, from Branch Office 1 ip|engine over the Internet.

One tunnel is created after you have defined the appropriate parameters in both the Orchestrator and in Zscaler.

Note: Only Zscaler is supported in this SD-WAN Orchestrator version. It is likely that other web security gateways can be defined.

Defining the IPSec tunnel parameters.
