Deploying on-premises vBond controllers through the Cisco Plug and Play Connect process requires specific configurations to ensure proper identification and communication between the controllers and the devices.
* DNS Name: A DNS name that identifies the vBond orchestrator is crucial. This DNS name allows devices to dynamically resolve the IP address of the vBond orchestrator. This is especially important in environments where IP addresses may change, ensuring that devices can always reach the vBond orchestrator through its DNS name.
* Process:
* When a device comes online, it contacts the Plug and Play server to get the necessary information for connecting to the SD-WAN fabric.
* The DNS name is used to resolve the vBond's IP address, enabling secure and reliable communication between the device and the vBond orchestrator.
