SD-WAN questions, commands and cheat sheet

And Yet Another Weekend Post! (YAWP)
Always break the rules and think software-defined!
Let's talk this weekend about a common buzzword. I mean SD-WAN.
As we wrote already several articles in this regard, SD-WAN also called as Software Defined – Wired Area Network facilitates the management and operation of a WAN. It separates the networking hardware from its control mechanism, easy spoken!
Various SD-WAN Vendors are available out there, but one of the best defined SD-WAN is Cisco Viptela. On August 1, 2017, Cisco announced the acquisition of Viptela, a private company based out of San Jose, CA, which delivered a Cloud-First SD-WAN. Viptela is a software-driven and cloud-first architecture which builds its virtualization, automation, and analytics which seemed delicious for Cisco's taste! 😄
SD-WAN is one of the technologies used in evolving and shaping the Networking Industry, and we are sure you are keen on working on the same. Hence in this article, we take a look at at some Cisco SD-WAN Questions which some Account Managers or nerdy people can ask you about.
