Configuration > Overlays & Security > Regions

Use this tab to add or remove regions from the SD-WAN fabric and configure regional routing. The regions within your SD-WAN fabric can represent geographical regions, administrative regions, or a set of sites in the network that have common business goals.

Regional Routing

When activated, regional routing lets you manage your SD-WAN fabric by regions. This involves intra-region and inter-region route distribution across the SD-WAN fabric. The regions within your network can represent geographical regions, administrative regions, or a set of sites in the network that have common business goals. You can provide a different Business Intent Overlay (BIO)for each region by enabling regional routing and customizing BIOs per region. The following diagrams show examples of different regional network topologies you can build by activating regional routing.
