Claim the Prisma SD-WAN ION and Assign to a Site

1. Claim the device by selecting WorkflowsPrisma SD-WAN SetupDevicesUnclaimed DevicesClaim the device.

   It will transition to an offline state while going through the claiming process.
2. Create a Data Center Site while the device is being claimed.

   Although this workflow depicts how to assign the vION to a data center site, you can also assign the vION to a branch site or a branch gateway site. However, Prisma SD-WAN does not support high availability for vIONs deployed at a branch site or a branch gateway site.

   1. Select WorkflowsPrisma SD-WAN SetupData CentersAdd Site.
   2. Enter a name for the site and other site details and click Next.
   3. Add an Internet Circuit in the Circuits section and click Next.

   4. Assign the device to the data center by selecting Assign Devices and selecting the ION device from the list of Select Devices and Save.

3. Once the device is successfully assigned, click on the device name (ion 7108v) to enter the device configuration screen.

   Provide a Device Name.

4. Configure Port 1.

   Assign the Internet WAN Circuit Label you created in step 2, the IP address assigned to the interface (nic1) in the Internet VPC and providing the external NAT address and port. To determine the interface and external (ephemeral) IP addresses navigate to the GCP portal and find the Public IP address provisioned for the internet interface Compute > VM > Select VM.

5. Configure port 2.

   Select Admin Up as Yes, Use this port to Peer with a Network, and set for DHCP.
6. Configure a static default route pointing to the gateway of port 2 (the 1st IP address of the private subnet specified in the peering subnet).

7. Switch the site to Control mode and verify the VPNs are up and active.

   Proceed to the next section to finalize the GCP deployment steps.
