How does SD-WAN work?

Software-defined networking (SDN) simplifies the management and operation of your global infrastructure. By decoupling hardware from orchestration, you improve cost, reliability and security.

SD‑WAN is an evolution of software‑defined networking, which separates the data layer from the control layer in a network environment. By using VPNs between sites, Orange is bringing the benefits of SDN to WAN‑based users and drawing more of the infrastructure into a software‑defined environment.
