  • METHOD AND SYSTEM OF SECURELY ADDING AN EDGE DEVICE OPERATING IN A PUBLIC NETWORK TO AN SD-WAN
    Publication number: 20260012452
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide, for a network manager of a secure SD-WAN (software-defined wide-area network), a method of securely adding an edge device, which operates at a branch location in a public network, to the SD-WAN. The method provides, to an activation service hosted on the public network, a record for the edge device that is to be added to the SD-WAN securely, the record for use by the activation service to authenticate the edge device. The method receives a first notification from the activation service indicating the edge device has been authenticated. The method receives a second notification from a verification service indicating the authenticated edge device has been verified. Based on the first and second notifications, the method provides to the activation service (i) a set of configuration data for the edge device and (ii) a set of authentication data for the edge device.
