Table of Contents
Let us learn to configure WAN/LAN ports. Ports are the physical interfaces on the ION device and Interfaces are the logical interfaces on the ION device.
Where Can I Use This?What Do I Need?
  • Prisma SD-WAN
  • Prisma SD-WAN license
  1. Select WAN/LAN as a port pair.
  2. In the General section,
    1. Enter a Name and Optional Description, and add Tags for the port channel interface.
    2. For Admin Up, select Up.
  3. In the Network Setting section,
    1. Interface Type displays the selected WAN/LAN bypass pair.
    2. For Hardware Relay – Fail to Wire, select Yes to get fail-to-wire functionality.
    3. For Use These Ports For, select Private WAN.
    4. For Circuit Label, select the circuit label that corresponds to your private WAN connection for this site.
    5. Select Enable IPv6 On This Interface to configure IPv6.
    6. For IPv6 Configuration, select DHCP or Static.
      Choose DHCP if the IP address is dynamically assigned.
      Choose Static if the IP address is fixed and is manually assigned. Additionally specify the IPv6 Address/Mask, Default Gateway(IPv6), and DNS server(s)(IPv6).
    7. For Attached Networks, enter the router’s VLAN ID and IP address.
      You may enter multiple VLAN IDs and IP addresses.
      1. Select Network Context if this is a subnet and you would like to segment one subnet for which you would like to define a separate policy. For example, guest Wi-Fi.
    8. For Scope, toggle Local or Global.
      Select Local when defining an IP subnet that is not advertised to any other site.
      Select Global when defining an IP subnet that is advertised to every Prisma SD-WAN site.
      Prisma SD-WAN does not control traffic if a prefix/subnet is not defined on the ION device.
