📌 Background

For enterprises with multiple branches or stores, secure and stable network interconnection is crucial. However, traditional VPN solutions face several challenges:

❌ Complex deployment and high costs: Long setup cycles and expensive maintenance.
❌ Inability to intelligently identify business traffic: Mixing critical applications with general traffic degrades user experience.
❌ Cumbersome management: Complex configurations increase operational burdens.

🚀 Next-Generation iWAN Solution

✅ Cost-effective: Replaces traditional leased lines, reducing network expenses.
✅ Intelligent traffic scheduling: Ensures priority for critical business applications.
✅ Quick deployment: One-click setup, adaptable to various network environments.

🔥 Challenges of Traditional Branch Networking

📈 Increasing Business Traffic and Expensive Bandwidth Upgrades

• Applications like video conferencing and AI recognition consume large amounts of bandwidth, making leased line expansion costly.

🚦 Bandwidth Contention Degrades Core Business Performance

• Critical applications share bandwidth with general traffic, causing congestion and delays.

⏳ Slow Backup Line Switching and Low Resource Utilization

• Traditional backup switching takes too long, leaving backup lines unused most of the time.

⚙️ Complex Router & VPN Configurations

• Decentralized device management increases operational costs and complexity.

🐧 Linux Configuration

📂 Create Configuration Directory

Before running the program, manually configure the server settings. Use the following command to create the /etc/sdwan directory:

sudo mkdir /etc/sdwan
sudo vim /etc/sdwan/iwan.conf

📂 Create Configuration File

[iwan0]
server=Server_IP
username=Login_Username
password=Password
port=Server_Port
mtu=Maximum_Transmission_Unit
encrypt=Encryption (0: No encryption, 1: Encrypted)

📤 Upload the Program

Use scp to upload the files to the backend.

🔑 Grant Execution Permission

chmod +x /root/sdwand

▶️ Run the Program

/root/sdwand &

🔍 Verify iWAN Interface

Run ifconfig to check the added iwan0 interface, which should be automatically assigned an IP.

🚦 Add a Static Route

Add a static route for the iWAN network segment:

route add –net x.x.x.x/nn dev iwan0
