A healthcare network needs a single pane to onboard gateways, push Day-0 configs, monitor tunnel health, retain alarms, and expose automation for its ticketing system. Which SD-WAN Manager capability set meets those management-plane needs?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
You are shopping for mission control! The Manager gives you visibility plus push-button lifecycle in one console, powered by REST APIs for automation. It is your NOC dashboard and provisioning desk combined.
Full Explanation
SD-WAN Manager (formerly vManage) is the management-plane system that provides the centralized GUI, configuration templates and configuration groups, software image operations, monitoring, alarms, troubleshooting tools, and REST APIs for Day-0 through Day-N lifecycle, without participating in packet forwarding or OMP best-path computation itself. Providing OMP route reflection and TLOC redistribution fails by concept because that is the SD-WAN Controller (formerly vSmart) control-plane role that builds and distributes routing state to edges. Providing NAT traversal orchestration and bootstrap fails by concept because that is the SD-WAN Validator (formerly vBond) orchestration role during initial bring-up. Providing line-rate IPsec and forwarding fails by concept because that is the WAN Edge data-plane role across transports. For the exam remember Manager equals manage, monitor, and automate while Controllers and Validators handle control and orchestration, and in practice verify user RBAC, template attachment status, alarm retention, and API integration credentials for the ticketing system.
