Enhanced DC Routing Capabilities

Prisma SD-WAN now supports the DC routing capabilites: Optimized DC Prefix Advertising, Enhanced Prefix Management, Automated Asymmetry Correction, and Intelligent Traffic Rerouting.
Enhanced DC routing capabilities address critical challenges and adapt to your network's evolving needs, ensuring it remains efficient and effective.
  1. Optimized Data Center (DC) Prefix Advertising: DC Site or ION devices now support advertising learned prefixes to the overlay Fabric. Your branch locations can now prioritize traffic through their preferred data center, ensuring faster and more reliable connections tailored to your organizational needs.
  2. Enhanced Prefix Management: DC ION devices can now advertise summary prefixes to the Core network, effectively addressing scale limitations. Our solution simplifies and scales your network's ability to handle large numbers of prefixes effortlessly.
  3. Automated Asymmetry Correction: Network asymmetry can pose a risk in scenarios where branch traffic routes through Prisma Access or other cloud security platforms. Our new functionality automatically detects and corrects asymmetry, ensuring smoother, more balanced traffic flows and compliance with security protocols.
  4. Intelligent Traffic Rerouting: DC ION devices can detect core network connectivity failures. When such issues arise, traffic is seamlessly redirected to alternative overlay paths within the same data center, maintaining uninterrupted service and enhancing network resilience.
