Managing CPE devices in SD-WAN controller menu

When you create a CPE device, it is also displayed in the Switchessection of the settings menu of the SD-WAN Controller. In this subsection, you can manage the device and view its statistics. Devices are displayed in a table with the following columns:

• Name is the CPE device name.
• ID is the sequence number of the CPE device. You can use this column to determine the order in which devices were connected to the SD-WAN Controller. The device with the lowest sequence number was the first to connect to the controller.
• Status is the status of the CPE device in SD-WAN Controller. One of the following statuses can be displayed in this column:
  • Active means that the device is being managed by a Controller.
  • Inactive means that the device is not being managed by a Controller.
• Connection is the status of the connection of the CPE device to the SD-WAN Controller. One of the following statuses can be displayed in this column:
  • Connected means a TCP session is established between the device and the Controller.
  • Disconnected means no TCP session is established between the device and the Controller.
• MAC is the MAC address of the CPE device.
• Interface is one or more WAN interfaces of the SD-WAN of the CPE device for establishing a TCP session with the SD-WAN Controller.
• Primary session is the WAN interface through which the control connection is established between the CPE device and the SD-WAN Controller.
• IP is the IP address used by the CPE device to establish a TCP session with the SD-WAN Controller.
• Port is the port number that CPE device uses to establish a TCP session with the SD-WAN Controller.
• Created is the date and time when the CPE device was registered.
• Location is the address of the CPE device location.
• Latency (ms.) is the latency in milliseconds of the TCP session between the CPE device and the SD-WAN Controller. The value displayed is for the control connection.
• Description is a brief description of the CPE device.

Note that the Switch button displayed in the upper part of the page is not used to create new CPE devices. This action is performed in the SD-WAN section.

Viewing statistics on CPE devices lets you analyze and monitor the process of traffic transmission between these devices and adapt your network policies in accordance with the changing requirements of your organization.

We do not recommend editing the settings of CPE devices and OpenFlow interfaces in the Switches section because this may cause malfunctions of the SD-WAN network. You can edit the settings of CPE devices in the CPE subsection, and the settings of OpenFlow interfaces in the CPE device configuration on the SD-WAN settings tab.
