An SD-WAN member is no longer used to steer SD-WAN traffic. The administrator updated the SD-WAN configuration and deleted the unused member. After the configuration update, users report that some destinations are unreachable. You confirm that the affected flow does not match an SD-WAN rule.

What could be a possible cause of the traffic interruption?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

When an SD-WAN member is deleted, FortiGate can also remove static routes that were tied to that interface. If those routes are needed for destinations not covered by SD-WAN rules, traffic to those networks becomes unreachable. This explains why flows not matching SD-WAN rules are interrupted after the member was removed.

I remember something about how SD-WAN members need to be properly configured to route traffic. If a member is deleted, it might affect routing.
