Hey all, as the schedule clears up a bit or at least I get the time to scape the routine, I wanted to get a bit time to continue the SD-WAN Series, I know I still have lots of HW to do on this one but here are “My Findings” The background story on how Cisco entered the SD-WAN Market Viptela, now known as Cisco SD-WAN is one of the acquisitions Cisco entered to finally get into the SD-WAN market with a product that finally makes sense, as you remember Cisco introduced a flavor of SD-WAN in the market few moons ago with the introduction of IWAN, which is still in production in lots of customer networks.
