SDWAN PAN-OS and Panorama - Docs are rough

dpayne — Wed, 09 Jun 2021 15:57:46 GMT

I am working through the panorama/sdwan plugin docs for a new deployment using Nextgen firewalls' built in SDWAN, all on 10.0.6 and the plugin version is 2.1

In the docs there seems to be some conflicting advice. See below. Anyone know which is correct here? I have to ship these devices off, and obviously having this setting wrong will cause some pain.

Hi @dpayne ,

You don't want to undermine any dynamic routing decisions (eg. BGP, OSPF) by adding the default route by default.

Actually the top arrow in your screenshot doesn't mention adding a default route ... it just mentions getting the default gateway assigned from the DHCP server.

Hope it helps !

I see. So the SDWAN being enabled and passing the default gateway parameter is sufficient for the routing, thus, having the route added via the option could undermine BGP. I believe this does make sense. Thanks!
