Known Issues in SD-WAN Plugin 3.0

Known issues in the SD-WAN Plugin 3.0.
The following list includes all known issues that impact an SD-WAN 3.0 release. This list includes both outstanding issues and issues that are addressed, as well as known issues that apply more generally or that are not identified by a specific issue ID. Refer to PAN-OS Release Notes for additional known issues affecting SD-WAN Plugin 3.0.

PAN-220919

Description of PAN-220919.
Auto VPN creates a virtual SD-WAN interface named sdwan.901 for direct internet access (DIA) and creates a virtual SD-WAN interface named sdwan.9xx for VPN tunnels. When you enable Auto VPN, the SD-WAN plugin creates the SD-WAN interfaces automatically. Hence, it's not necessary for you to create SD-WAN interfaces manually. The SaaS quality profile works only with one DIA interface that is sdwan.901.
Auto VPN also creates its own default route that uses the sdwan.901 interface as its egress interface and uses a low metric of 5, so that the sdwan.901 interface is preferred over the default route you created.
There might be scenarios where you want to create an SD-WAN interface manually (other than what the SD-WAN plugin creates automatically) like the following:
  • Configuring SD-WAN direct internet access (DIA) links only and no VPN connections between the hub and branch locations
  • (Not recommended) Deploying SD-WAN manually between SD-WAN sites without Panorama management server
In such cases, you must configure the manually created SD-WAN interface outside of the SDWAN.9xx range containing a route with a metric higher than the default value.

PAN-215899

Description of PAN-215899
Configuration synchronization between Panorama HA peers is failing.
Workaround
: Run commit force from CLI on the passive Panorama before triggering an HA configuration sync from active Panorama. Whenever sync fails, this workaround can be used.

PAN-215897

Description of PAN-215897.
In a Panorama high availability (HA) deployment, the SD-WAN interface goes down and all the tunnel interfaces disappear from the
Network
IPSec Tunnels
tab when you push the configuration changes from the secondary Panorama.
Workaround
: If you have set up a HA pair in Panorama, don't push the configuration from the secondary Panorama when the primary Panorama is active. Always push the configuration changes from the primary Panorama when it's active.

PAN-190173

Pre-shared keys are not synchronized across the Panorama management servers in a high availability (HA) configuration, leading to tunnel flaps during an HA failover when you
Push to Devices
(
Commit
Push to Devices
or
Commit
Commit and Push
).
This issue is addressed in SD-WAN plugin 2.2.3 and 3.1.0-h6.

PAN-123040

When you try to view network QoS statistics on an SD-WAN branch or hub, the QoS statistics and the hit count for the QoS rules don’t display. A workaround exists for this issue. Please contact Support for information about the workaround.

PLUG-14809

Description of PLUG-14809
A commit error will be thrown when you attempt to disable multiple virtual routers feature on the SD-WAN hub by executing the following CLI command:
set plugins sd-wan devices
device-serial-number
multi-vr-support no

PLUG-14559

Description of PLUG-14559.
A commit failure occurs when you attempt to rename the vsys to a name other than vsys1 for a multi-vsys firewall with private link type (in an
SD-WAN Interface Profile
).
This issue is addressed in SD-WAN plugin 3.0.7.

PLUG-14499

Description of PLUG-14499
(
Panorama HA deployments only
) The firewalls managed by HA active and passive Panorama would go out of synchronization when you make any changes to an active Panorama SD-WAN configuration (such as modifying the VPN cluster name). After this, even when the SD-WAN configuration changes are pushed from active Panorama to the firewalls, the firewalls remains out of synchronization on passive Panorama. This issue does not occur when changing a non-SD-WAN related configuration.
Workaround
: In a Panorama HA deployment, if you make any changes to an existing SD-WAN configuration:
  1. Commit the SD-WAN configuration changes on an active Panorama (where the HA synchronization happens on the passive Panorama automatically)
  2. Trigger manual synchronization from active Panorama to passive Panorama by executing the following CLI command:
    request high-availability sync-to-remote running-config
  3. Push to the firewalls from active Panorama
This issue is addressed in SD-WAN plugin 3.0.7. However, it is required to follow the workaround when you wish to modify the active Panorama SD-WAN configuration.

PLUG-14475

Description of PLUG-14475

PLUG-11277

Description of PLUG-11277
In an SD-WAN hub-and-spoke topology, where Prisma Access compute nodes (CNs) are configured as a hub connecting to the PAN-OS firewalls, the session gets established on only one compute node when ECMP is disabled. When more than one compute nodes are connected to the PAN-OS firewalls, routes get added from one of the compute nodes only. Even though the branch firewalls learn the routes through BGP from both the Prisma Access compute nodes, the branch installs only one of the BGP routes based on the BGP route selection criteria. Therefore, when a traffic passes from the other compute node, the session does not get established.
This issue is addressed in SD-WAN plugin 2.2.6,
3.0.7
.

PLUG-11223

Description of PLUG-11223.
In a high availability (HA) deployment, the SD-WAN tunnel will go down due to a key ID mismatch when the following events occur in sequence:
  • An HA failover
  • The SD-WAN plugin cache removes the current HA pair relation from the database when
    debug plugins sd_wan drop-config-cache all
    command is executed
  • A commit and push fails on either the hub or a branch active node
In certain scenarios, replacing one of the HA devices during the RMA process can cause the SD-WAN tunnel to go down due to a key ID mismatch. For more details, refer to Replace an SD-WAN Device.
Workaround
: Resolve the Key ID mismatch by ensuring that the
Peer Identification
of the hub firewall matches with the
Local Identification
of the branch firewall and the
Local Identification
of the hub firewall matches with the
Peer Identification
of the branch firewall.
  1. Log in to the hub or a branch firewall where the SD-WAN tunnel is down due to Key ID mismatch and select
    Network
    Network Profiles
    IKE Gateways
    .
  2. Select the IKE gateway of the hub firewall and click
    Override
    at the bottom of the screen.
  3. Copy the
    Local Identification
    value from the hub firewall to the
    Peer Identification
    value in the branch firewall.
  4. Copy the
    Peer Identification
    value from the hub firewall to the
    Local Identification
    value in the branch firewall.
  5. Click
    OK
    and
    Commit
    your changes.
This issue is addressed in SD-WAN plugin 2.2.5 .
