Example: Create Domain elements for different sites

You can create a different Domain for each of your organization's sites, as shown in the following example.

Company B is a large enterprise planning a new system. The system includes 12 different sites, each of which contains 10 networks. The administrators at each site only need to be able to see the networks at their own sites. The headquarters administrator decides to use the Management Server’s internal LDAP user database for user authentication in all Domains. This means that all administrators in each Domain are able to view the user database information.

The headquarters administrator:

  1. Logs on to the Shared Domain and creates Domains to represent each of the 12 sites.
  2. Configures the user database and user authentication using the internal LDAP directory of the Secure SD-WAN Manager while logged on to the Shared Domain.
  3. Logs on to each Domain that represents a site’s configuration and creates the elements for the Domain:
    • The Administrator elements (the administrator accounts) for the administrators of each site.
    • All other elements that belong to each Domain.

When the administrators at each site log on to the Management Client, they also automatically log on to the Domain assigned to them. They only see the elements that belong to their own site’s configuration and also the elements in the Shared Domain.
