Configuration Group

A configuration group is a logical grouping of features or configurations that can be applied to one or more devices in the network managed by Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN. You can define and customize this grouping based on your business needs.

Examples

Example-1: The example below defines a single device configuration group named branch_type1 and assignes service, system, and transport profiles.

sdwan:
configuration_groups:
- name: branch_type1
description: configuration group for branch with single router and dual inet transport
service_profile: service_with_ospf
system_profile: system_global
transport_profile: transport_dual_inet

Example-2: The example below demonstrates how to define a dual device configuration group and assign service, system and transport feature profiles for this configuration group. The dual device configuration group defines "primary_router" and "secondary_router" tag (dual device configuration group always requires two tags to be defined). It also specifies that devices with the "primary_router" tag will use the "inet_tloc" feature, while devices with the "secondary_router" tag will use the "mpls_tloc" feature. Any features not explicitly specified will be used by routers with either tag.

Note that for dual device configuration group device_tags -> features section, only names for the following feature types are supported:

  • lan/vpn
  • lan/vpn/interface/ethernet
  • lan/vpn/interface/ipsec
  • lan/vpn/interface/svi
  • routing/bgp
  • routing/ospf
  • wan/vpn/interface/cellular
  • wan/vpn/interface/ethernet
  • wan/vpn/interface/gre
  • wan/vpn/interface/ipsec
  • wan/vpn/interface/serial
