How to configure SD-WAN on Fortigate?

Configuring SD-WAN on a Fortigate firewall involves several steps to ensure optimal performance and efficient utilization of multiple WAN links. Firstly, the Fortigate firewall must be properly connected to the internet via the WAN interfaces. Then, an SD-WAN interface must be created, which involves defining the corresponding WAN interfaces and configuring load balancing or failover settings. The next step is to create SD-WAN rules that determine traffic prioritization and which WAN link should be used for specific applications or destinations. Additional settings such as link health monitoring and traffic shaping can also be configured to further optimize the SD-WAN setup. Finally, it is crucial to test and monitor the SD-WAN configuration to ensure its effectiveness and make any necessary adjustments for an optimal network experience.
