AT A GLANCE VMware SD-WAN™, a fundamental component of VMware SASE™ (Secure -

VMware SASE, with VMware SD-WAN Access Service Edge), offers converged cloud networking and security services to
as a fundamental building block, brings achieve flexibility, agility, and scale for enterprises of all sizes. VMware SD-WAN
cloud-delivered networking, security, is built on software-defined networking principles to address end-to-end
AIOps, and compute to support automation, application continuity, branch transformation, and security from the
ubiquitous access for branch and edge to the data center and the cloud.
remote workers as well as digital VMware SD-WAN and VMware SASE are emerging as a platform for enterprises
transformation at the edge. to bring networking and edge compute together for modern applications, while
VMware SD-WAN enables enterprises delivering security and ubiquity of access for the distributed workforce. Only
to securely support application growth, VMware delivers SD-WAN and SASE as a cloud-native, edge services
network agility, and simplified branch architecture for today's distributed enterprises embracing cloud, workforce, and
implementations while delivering high- application transformation.
performance, reliable branch access to As a cloud-delivered solution, VMware SD-WAN ensures resilient WAN
cloud services, private data centers, connectivity and allows users to have flexible WAN choices, such as broadband,
SaaS-based and edge-native enterprise MPLS, and LTE. VMware SD-WAN offers high application performance and
applications. Cloud-native by design, availability while lowering networking costs. It can detect the slightest
VMware SD-WAN and other SASE degradations and dynamically remediate over one or multiple WAN links,
services are delivered via a global resulting in a highly satisfied user experience. While most enterprises deploy SD-

Firewall Service, based on VMware's proven NSX security technology, is built into
VMware SD-WAN Edges, providing comprehensive security and eliminating the
KEY BENEFITS need for legacy firewalls at branch locations.
• Simplified WAN management:
Zero touch deployments, simplified

operations, one-click service insertion
The VMware SD-WAN solution consists of four components:
• Assured application performance:
Transport-independent performance VMware SD-WAN Edge
for the most demanding applications, VMware SD-WAN Edge is an enterprise-class appliance providing secure and
leveraging economical bandwidth optimized connectivity to applications anywhere, on and off the cloud. It is zero-
touch provisioned for secure and optimized connectivity to applications.
• Managed on-ramp to the cloud:
Direct cloud access with performance, VMware SD-WAN Edge is available in various form factors: hardware, software
reliability, and security (VMs), downloadable from cloud marketplaces, or Virtual Network Functions
(VNF), with hardware appliances most widely deployed at customer branch sites.

VMware SD-WAN Edge Platform Specifications

VMware SD-WAN Edge automatically aggregates multiple links and steers traffic over the optimal links based on Dynamic
Multipath Optimization™ (DMPO) and deep application recognition (DAR). VMware SD-WAN Edge supports high availability
(HA) deployment models and can easily integrate into an existing network.

VMware SD-WAN Edge also offers an Enhanced Firewall Service, significantly strengthening corporate network security,
protecting sensitive data, and preventing cyber-attacks. This integrated firewall provides a barrier between a private network
and the public Internet and is crucial to protect branch sites from unauthorized access and threats.

VMware SD-WAN Gateways

VMware SD-WAN Gateways optimize data paths to all applications, branches, and data centers, along with the ability to
deliver network services to and from the cloud. VMware's distributed, global network of gateways, hosted by VMware/service
providers or deployed on-premises, provides scalability, redundancy, and on-demand flexibility.

VMware SD-WAN Gateways implement DMPO, cloud VPN, and VMware SD-WAN Multisource Inbound Quality of Service
between global cloud services (SaaS or IaaS) and each VMware SD-WAN Edge, enabling broadband and private leased lines
to appear as a single, high-performance WAN connection.

VMware Edge Cloud Orchestrator™

VMware Edge Cloud Orchestrator is a cloud-hosted (or on-premises) central management tool for all VMware SASE
components: VMware SD-WAN, VMware Secure Access™, VMware Cloud Web Security™, and VMware Edge Network
Intelligence™. Its web-based user interface (UI) provides simplified configuration, provisioning, monitoring, fault management,
logging, and reporting functions. VMware Edge Cloud Orchestrator enables flexible implementation of business-based
policies for application delivery and traffic management.

VMware Edge Network Intelligence

VMware Edge Network Intelligence is a vendor-agnostic artificial intelligence for IT operations (AIOps) solution focused on the
enterprise edge that ensures end user and internet of things (IoT) client performance, security, and self-healing through wired
and wireless LAN, SD-WAN and SASE.

The solution employs machine learning algorithms and modern big data analytics to process high volumes of data from a wide
range of network, device, and application sources. In doing so, VMware Edge Network Intelligence auto-discovers end user

and IoT devices, automatically establishes baselines, understands every single client interaction, and monitors for deviations to
provide actionable insights that operations teams can proactively remediate. See the VMware Edge Network Intelligence
datasheet for more information.
