How is SD-WAN enabled

How is SD-WAN enabled on a FG device?
Is there an explicit switch somewhere to turn it on?
Or is it implicitly turned on by creating one or more SD-WAN zones and SD-WAN rules?

Thanks.....

There is no explicit switch, you just need to configure the SDWAN objects - SD-WAN zones,SD-WAN members,Performance SLAs and SD-WAN rules.

Hi slouw, 

 

You need to add interface member into SD-WAN zone. Please check the following administrative guide for SD-WAN quick start.
