SDWAN - Installing, Configuring, Monitoring and Troubleshooting Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN V20.15.2/17.15.2

• This release begins the Journey of streamlining Configuration Groups and Policy Groups, empowering network administrators with greater control and efficiency. This release is pretty close to feature complete, and the first release that I would tell customers that it is time to look to convert Configuration Templates to Configuration Groups. Here are some of the Updates: Configuration Groups: Simplifying Network Management With the advent of configuration groups, network administrators can now create and manage device configurations more effectively. The feature allows for the grouping of devices based on specific criteria, enabling consistent and centralized configuration deployment. By reducing manual configurations on individual devices, configuration groups ensure uniformity and significantly decrease the potential for errors, leading to a more streamlined and reliable network management process. Policy Groups: Enhanced Policy Management The introduction of policy groups in Cisco SD–WAN 20.15.2 marks a substantial improvement in policy management. This feature allows administrators to define and apply policies to specific groups of devices or regions, facilitating more granular control over network behavior. By aligning policies with organizational requirements and regional compliance standards, policy groups enhance security and performance across the network. This targeted approach ensures that policies are both effective and relevant to the specific needs of different network segments. The release of Cisco SD–WAN 20.15.2 underscores the importance of adopting configuration and policy groups to optimize network operations. These features not only simplify the management of complex network environments but also enhance scalability and responsiveness to organizational changes. By leveraging configuration groups, administrators can ensure maintaining a secure and efficient network infrastructure.
