Onboard an ECMP Site
316 Cloud Managed - Onboard an ECMP Site in a PA cloud managed environment.
ECMP is now enabled by default within the CloudBlades. With the Local-AS configuration, the ECMP
onboarding of sites is simplified by just having to configure the
prisma_access
tag on a site, in conjunction with the
IPSec Termination Node region tags applied.This provides the ability to add new links to the site and have them automatically added to the
ECMP bundle, providing the site with an additional path to Prisma Access.
ECMP
is enabled on all circuits, but can be disabled or modified for
a given site. All circuits that have reachability to Prisma Access
will automatically be added to the ECMP bundle, with up to four
interfaces in the ECMP bundle.
It is recommended to perform the Interface tagging with the
relevant IPSec Termination nodes, before applying the site level tag.
- From thePrisma SD-WANinterface, select your site.
- Click the extended tags icon on theEdit Sitescreen to view ECMP.
When you create an ECMP bundle, the default selection isAuto Detectfor bothRegionandLicenselevel sections by default.WithAggregate Bandwidthlicensing mode, the auto region detection for ECMP bundles is not recommended to be used. There is no current logic today from the CloudBlade and Prisma integration to determine if a region has bandwidth allocated (and IPSec Termination Nodes behind it). The current CloudBlade logic assumes that all regions have bandwidth available.
