Which algorithm does SD-WAN use to distribute traffic that does not match any of the SD-WAN rules?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

For traffic that does not match any of the defined SD-WAN rules, the default implicit SD-WAN rule is applied. By default, the FortiGate uses a 'source-destination IP-based' algorithm, which means all traffic from a specific source IP to a specific destination IP is sent through the same interface. This ensures that a consistent path is used for traffic between the same source and destination IP addresses. Options B, C, and D do not apply because the default algorithm does not prioritize by latency, session count, or source IP alone.

B) Traffic is sent to the link with the lowest latency. Unless of course, the link is made of spaghetti, then all bets are off!

C) Traffic is distributed based on the number of sessions through each interface. Balancing the load, that's the way to go!

B) Traffic is sent to the link with the lowest latency. Makes sense, gotta keep those packets moving fast, am I right?

I'm not sure, but I think C) Traffic is distributed based on the number of sessions through each interface could also be a valid option.
