SD-WAN is just a properly configured multi-WAN with a nice GUI - change my mind

As per title. SD-WAN boxes are just glorified routers that automatically setup VPNs and dynamically route traffic base on some SLA criterias (i.e. measured latency etc).

The general misconception of "I can save billions by ditching my MPLS" is still strong, n crappy links will not make a good one, they will remain crap, no matter how big is n.

If you just moved to "SD-WAN" and you are happy with it you could have probably done it yourself for a fraction using some decent firewalls and a decent network engineer.

change my mind
