Oracle SD-WAN Edge Configuration Editor

The new Oracle SD-WAN Edge Configuration Editor is a web--‐ based tool incorporated with Oracle SD-WAN Edge

Software that delivers Oracle SD-WAN Edge configuration editing capabilities, configuration compiling, and the ability to create and edit network maps. The Configuration Editor operates on Configuration Packages, which consist of an Oracle SD-WAN Edge configuration and one or more optional network maps. These Configuration Packages can be saved, re--‐ opened, exported, or imported from the Configuration Editor. Unlike the legacy Configuration Editor, this new tool works without Java, making it a more secure choice for network development.

You will find the Configuration Editor on the web interface by navigating to Manage Network, and then Configuration Editor.

Once inside the Configuration Editor, you can select “New” to start building your Configuration Package or you can select “View Tutorial” to be guided through an introduction of the new tool.

The Configuration Tree (located in the left--‐ side pane of the Configuration Editor) is where you can add sites, define connections between those sites, and perform provisioning activities. Figure 3 illustrates an example of the Configuration Tree expanded to edit the Basic Settings for a site. All items denoted with “+” can be expanded to show more detail.

INSERT ALT TEXT

After building the network configuration, a Network Map can be customized by clicking & dragging individual sites onto the map, or by auto populating the map with all sites. Every new

Configuration Package has a default map called “Network Map” associated with it. This map can be re-named and additional maps can be created using the “+” tab.

INSERT ALT TEXT

To further customize your map, you can also add backgrounds to it. Click the gear symbol on the map and select “Set Background”. As shown in the example below, you can then place your Sites on the background where you wish. (See figure 5)

Oracle SD-WAN Edge Configuration Editor and Oracle SD-WAN Edge Aware

Oracle SD-WAN Aware is a new network management system to be release in 2014. In order to deploy Oracle SD-WAN Aware in an Adaptive Private Network, each Oracle Mercury Oracle SD-WAN Edge Appliance in the network must have its software updated to R3.1 or higher. The new Oracle SD-WAN Edge Configuration Editor is the foundation of the configuration model that will allow an Oracle SD-WAN Aware Node to perform Management and Monitoring functions for the entire Oracle SD-WAN Edge. For more information on Oracle SD-WAN Aware and its implementation please contact your local Oracle representative.
