Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN (Viptela) Sandbox (20.12.x)
Sandbox Lab
Solution overview
This sandbox environment features a pre-configured network topology designed to showcase the diverse capabilities of the Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN solution. The incorporated set of components within the lab topology include Controllers and IOS-XE WAN Edges (Catalyst 8000V), all running on 20.12.3.1/17.12.03a code.
In August 2023, Cisco released Catalyst SD-WAN version 20.12.1, which includes a newly redesigned vManage GUI, AAR Improvements, SD-Routing, Configuration Groups and Feature Profiles (Phase IV), Multi-tenancy Enhancements, and Symmetric Routing. These enhancements add to a variety of configuration options used to suit your specific needs and preferences and further customize your own SD-WAN solution. This version of the lab uses the 20.12.3.1 release which is the latest upgrade of the 20.12 version and one of the current golden images recommended by Cisco.
