Issue/Introduction

VMware SASE architecture combines VMware SD-WAN Gateways, VMware Secure Access, our zero trust network access (ZTNA) solution, secure web gateway (SWG) and cloud security access broker (CASB) solutions, and VMware NSX Firewall, our next-gen firewall functionality--all delivered through VMware SASE Points of Presence (PoPs).

SD-WAN enables branch agility and scalability through zero-touch provisioning, automated configuration, global WAN visibility, and enterprise-wide policy enforcement. Traditional WAN is expensive and time-consuming to deploy and manage, inhibiting rapid scalability.

SD-WAN is cloud-delivered, offering the branch network secure, fast, and reliable access to SaaS applications and the cloud. Traditional WAN backhauls traffic to the data center, resulting in deteriorated SaaS application access performance and inefficient use of expensive bandwidth.

*NOTE:
If you want to generate a diagnostic bundle for Edge on VCO and then download it, please log in with a user which has partner privileges. If you don't have a user with partner privileges, in other words, if you have only user with customer privileges, the user can only generate the diagnostic bundle.
Hence, you won't be able to download the diagnostic bundle. Please let VMware support team know the time when you generate it. VMware support team can download it.

If you send material(s), such as screenshot and CSV file and so on, to VMware support team, please send us English version because we may share it with foreign engineer(s).

If an issue occurs with edge(s), please generate diag for the edge(s) on VCO ASAP and upload it. If the diag for the edge(s) is not provided, the technical support engineer may decline to provide a solution because we can not analyze the issue.
