Integrate Catalyst SD-WAN with Secure Access
Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN integrates with Cisco Secure Access to share network context between the platforms for the purpose of applying consistent security enforcement for users, devices and workloads across the enterprise. Context-aware security policies become key for implementing and achieving a true zero-trust framework for the enterprise.
With this integration feature, administrators can automatically build tunnels with reliability to Secure Access from a Catalyst SD-WAN branch and share VPN-ID/name and Security Group Tag (SGT) context learned from the enterprise. Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN can be deployed and connected using either virtual or physical secure routers at branch offices, data center networks, and regional hubs. This integration allows IT teams to:
- Connect any user to any application, with integrated capabilities for multicloud, security, predictive operations, and enhanced network visibility on a Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)-enabled architecture.
- Ensure a predictable user experience for applications.
- Optimize Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), and Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) connections.
- Offer integrated security, either on-premises or in the cloud.
This section describes how to enable inline context propagation, represented by VPN IDs and Security Group Tags (SGTs).
