We are in the process of replacing our Cisco ASA's and are considering the FortiGate 200E and 300E's for our various 7 offices across the US.
We currently have an MPLS connection between each office to provide communication across each office. We'd like to be able to get rid of this MPLS and switch to an SD-WAN to save money as the MPLS is expensive.
After reading up on the FortiGate SD-WAN, it seems that the feature is more of a load balancer for dual internet connections than a function that would allow us to create a virtual connection to each of our offices.
Obviously we could do site-to-site VPNs to each office, but the new buzzword of SD-WAN means most of the new products will manage all of that networking easier than creating 7 VPNs on 7 different devices.
Has anyone used the FortiGate SD-WAN feature for this purpose or is it merely an intelligent Internet routing function?
