Configuration Editor Changes

This section describes changes made to the Configuration Editor in Oracle SD-WAN Edge Release 9.0.

Regions

Regions can now have sites assigned to them. You can add one region per site.

See "Regions" in the "Site Configuration" section of the Configuration Editor documentation for details.

User Tags

User tags are used to associate a business level context to a site in order to identify the site's purpose. The three default user tags are Data Center, Regional Branch, and Branch. A site can only be associated with one tag. You can also filter sites by user tag.

See "User Tags" in the "Site Configuration" section for details.

Manage Sites

You can perform mass updates on sites using the Manage Sites feature, such as managing regions and user tags.

Manage Configurations

You can now perform the following actions from the Configuration Management screen:
  • Create a new configuration
  • Import a configuration file
  • Clone a configuration
  • Delete a configuration
  • Edit the name of a configuration file and add comments
  • Download a configuration file
  • Export the configuration file to Change Management
  • Lock or unlock a configuration file

Importing Configuration

Once you've imported a configuration file, you can use the Manage Configuration option to set a configuration active so you can edit the file.

Locking/Unlocking Configuration

On the Manage Configuration screen, you can lock and unlock a configuration file. When locked, any changes made to the file cannot be saved. When unlocked, changes can be saved.

Advanced View

When configuring a site, check Advanced to open advanced settings and disable Basic mode.

Define Interfaces

Interface Groups and Virtual IP Addresses have been combined into the Define Interfaces section.

Site Search

You can search for site names, as well as filter by model type or user tag.

Object Renaming

The following objects have been renamed:
  • Rule Groups has been renamed to MOS Groups
  • Default Sets has been renamed to QoS Policies

Oracle Defined Applications

Once you have imported the Oracle Defined Application preset file, you do not need to import it again.

Inline Editing

For any object that does not have an Edit icon available, double click on the row in order to make edits.

Unlinking

You can no longer unlink a QoS Policy (formerly Default Set) classes from a site.

Revert

The Revert option has been removed.

Local Rules and Classes

Local rules and classes have been removed from site services. All services must now be assigned to a QoS Policy instead.

Audit

The Configuration Editor no longer performs a full audit when a change is made. Click on the Audit button at the top of the page to perform a full audit.
