Configure the VeloCloud Remote Network
The following section describes the steps
you perform to integrate a VeloCloud SD-WAN with Prisma Access,
including an overview of the VeloCloud-Prisma Access integration.
Secure VeloCloud SD-WAN with Prisma Access Overview
To onboard a VeloCloud SD-WAN with Prisma
Access, you configure a remote network tunnel in Prisma Access.
The VeloCloud SD-WAN device sends traffic through the remote network
to Prisma Access, which allows Prisma Access to protect your internet-directed traffic,
including resources such as SaaS applications or publicly accessible
partner applications.
You can secure VeloCloud SD-WAN deployments
by onboarding the remote network using the VeloCloud Edge device or VeloCloud Gateway.
VeloCloud
edge devices are plug and play devices that you can install in remote
sites. You can connect one or more devices to an aggregation point,
known as an
SD-WAN headend
. Use a VeloCloud gateway as the
SD-WAN headend. In the VeloCloud SD-WAN fabric, you can configure
multiple sites that connect to one gateway, a single site to connect
to one gateway, or multiple sites that connect to multiple gateways,
as shown in the following figure.

You can connect one or more remote network connections
to a cloud headend. To simplify setup, specify static routing and
configure a separate subnet for each remote network location you
onboard.
Size the bandwidth of the remote network connection
based on the traffic from the branches that are connected to the
cloud headend. You can scale the VeloCloud SD-WAN with Prisma Access
in multiple ways; for example, you can connect multiple gateways
to one remote network, or connect one gateway to multiple remote
networks.
Prisma Access protects your internet-based resources,
including SaaS applications and content. The following figure shows
a sample VeloCloud gateway-Prisma Access deployment.

Configure the Remote Network Connection in Prisma Access
To begin configuration of a VeloCloud-Prisma
Access deployment, create the Prisma Access remote network connection and
configure IKE and IPSec parameters for the IPSec tunnel between
Prisma Access and VeloCloud.
This procedure assumes that you
have already completed the following prerequisites:
- You have activated Prisma Access.
- You have made a note of the subnets you will use for each remote network gateway.
- You have made a note of the IP address for the VeloCloud SD-WAN device. You obtain this information from the VMware SD-WAN Orchestrator.You use the IP address of the gateway address to configure the IKE gateway.
- Follow the steps to Connect a Remote Network Site to Prisma Access (Cloud Management).
- Choose aPrisma Access Locationthat is close to the remote network location that you want to onboard.
- When creating the IPSec tunnel, use aBranch Device TypeofOther Devices.
- Enter aStatic IPaddress that matches the VeloCloud SD-WAN device’s IP address.You obtain this address from the VMware SD-WAN Orchestrator.
- Enter aPre-shared keyfor symmetric authentication across the tunnel.
- Choose aLocal IdentificationofNoneand anIKE Peer IdentificationofFQDN (hostname); then, enter an FQDN.Make a note of the of thePre-Shared keyandFQDNthat you use for thePeer Identification; you match these settings when you configure the VeloCloud cloud gateway.
- SelectIPSec Advanced OptionsandCreate Newto create a new IPSec crypto profile for the remote network tunnel using the recommended settings.
- SelectIKE Advanced OptionsandCreate Newto create a new IKE cryptographic profile for the remote network tunnel.
- Be sure to use crypto values that are supported with Velocloud and make a note of the values you use.
- EnableIKE NAT Traversal(Enabled by default).
- Set up routing for the remote network.Set UpRouting andAddthe IP subnets for Static Routing.AddaBranch IP SubnetChoose Static Routing andAdda subnet you have reserved for this remote network connection.
- Push your configuration changes.
- Return toand selectManageService SetupRemote Networks.Push ConfigPush
- SelectRemote Networks.
- Pushyour changes.
- Make a note of theService IPof the Prisma Access side of the tunnel. To find this address in Cloud Managed Prisma Access, select, click theManageService SetupRemote NetworksRemote Networks. Look for theService IPfield corresponding to the remote network configuration you created.
Configure the Remote Network Connection for VeloCloud Edge
Devices
Use the following procedure to configure the
IPSec tunnel on the VeloCloud edge device to complete the remote
network connection.
- Log in to the Enterprise customer account on the VeloCloud Orchestrator (VCO).
- Select.ConfigureNetwork Services
- In theCloud Security Servicesarea, clickNewto create a new service.
- Enter the following values in the New Cloud Security Provider window that displays:
- Enter aService Nameto identify this configuration.
- Select aService TypeofGeneric Cloud Security Service.
- For thePrimary Point-of-Presence, enter theService IPyou retrieved from Prisma Access.
- ClickAddto save and add the configuration.
- Selectand setConfigureProfileCloud Security ServicetoOn; then, select theHash,Encryption, andKey Exchange Protocolto the settings you configured for the remote network tunnel in Prisma Access.
- Selectand complete the following steps:ConfigureEdge
- SetCloud Security ServicetoOn.
- Select the radio button toRedirect all internet bound traffic to Cloud Security Service.
- Select theHash,Encryption, andKey Exchange Protocolto match the settings you configured for the remote network tunnel in Prisma Access.
- Enter theFQDNand pre-shared key (PSK) to match the FQDN and PSK you entered in Prisma Access.
- Verify the status of the remote network tunnel.
- To view tunnel status in the VMware SD-WAN Orchestrator, selectin the VMware SD-WAN Orchestrator and viewing the information in the fields that display.MonitorEdge
- To view traffic and application statistics, select theTransport and Applicationstab, then select.MonitorEdge
Configure the Remote Network Connection for VeloCloud Gateways
Use the following procedure to configure the
IPSec tunnel on the VeloCloud edge gateway to enable the remote
network connection.
- Establish connectivity from the VeloCloud gateway to Prisma Access.
- Log in to the Enterprise customer account on the VeloCloud Orchestrator (VCO).
- Select.ConfigureNetwork Services
- SelectNewin theNon-VeloCloud Sitesto create a new site.
- Enter aNamefor the site and select aTypeofPalo Alto.
- For thePrimary VPN Gateway, enter theService IPyou retrieved from Prisma Access.
- ClickNext.VeloCloud creates the site and generates the IKE and IPSec configuration (including pre-shared key) for the site.
- ClickAdvancedand update the IKE and IPSec parameters and add theSite Subnetsthat you will protect with Prisma Access.
- Make sure that you have selectedEnable Tunnel(s); then,Save Changes.To view the detailed IKE and IPSec parameters and the public IP address used by the VeloCloud gateway, clickView IKE IPSec Template. The public IP address displays in theLocal Identification : IP address :area.
- Verify the status of the remote network connection between the VeloCloud gateway and Prisma Access by selecting. AMonitorNetwork ServicesStatusin green indicates that the connection has been successfully established.
- Configure the customer profile to service-chain the Non-VeloCloud site to the customer’s SD-WAN.
- SelectConfigureProfilesProfile-Name, whereProfile-Nameis the customer’s profile, then click theDevicetab.
- Enable theCloud VPNfeature to turn on VPN connectivity from the Branch and Data Center sites.
- In theBranch to Non-VeloCloud Sitesection, selectEnable; then, select the Prisma Access site you created in Step 1.
- Save your changes.
