cannot ping or http after configuring sdwan static route

I newly implemented sd wan.

My sdwan has only 1 WAN interface.

I remove the previous static route configured on the wan interface.

I put a new static route for the sdwan interface.

Now i cannot ping or https from the wan interface.

Why?

Hi, 

 

Sorry for misunderstanding the question. 

 

The Lan link is SDWAN Zone? 

 

If yes, from the version 7.0 and above it gives you option to configure two static routes with the different SDWAN Zone. 

If the LAN is not part of the SDWAN then there is no possiblity to configure the two static route. 

 

SDWAN it self has perfromance SLA, where you can enable the feature of "update static route", if WAN failed then whatever the best route is available it will choose. 

 

Again I am sorry if I am not understanding the question correctly. 

 

Thanks.

Hi,

 

Based on my understanding, changing the static route with the SDWAN interface won't affect anything.

 

However, I would like to confirm whether you've set the gateway for WAN1 inside the SDWAN configuration.

 

Could you please provide your SDWAN configuration?

config sys sdwan

show full

I already know the problem.

I am asking for a workaround.

I have an SDWAN link with WAN1.

I have another LAN link - LAN1.

I want 2 static route:

0.0.0.0/0 to WAN1 - do sdwan and ping to 8.8.8.8.

0.0.0.0/0 to LAN if WAN1 fails. 

I know it cannot be done. But I want to know if there is a workaround.

Hi,

How do you update static route?

What I want:

0.0.0.0/0 goto SDwan link (WAN1 and WAN2).

If sd-wan fails, update to 0.0.0.0/0 go to LAN2.

Is this possible, is there a workaround?
