What is one way an SD-WAN Edge router originates a vRoute?
An SD-WAN Edge router originates a vRoute from TLOCs (Transport Locator) connected to the WAN transports. TLOCs define a specific point in the network, uniquely identified by an IP address, color (used for distinguishing different transports such as MPLS, internet, etc.), and an encapsulation method. These TLOCs are crucial in the SD-WAN architecture for mapping and managing routes across the WAN transports effectively, allowing for optimized and resilient network performance.
OMP Route Advertisements On Cisco vSmart Controllers and Cisco vEdge devices, OMP advertises to its peers the routes and services that it has learned from its local site, along with their corresponding transport location mappings, which are called TLOCs. These routes are called OMP routes or vRoutes to distinguish them from standard IP routes. The routes advertised are actually a tuple consisting of the route and the TLOC associated with that route. It is through OMP routes that the Cisco vSmart Controllers learn the topology of the overlay network and the services available in the network. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/routers/sdwan/configuration/config-groups/configuration-group-guide/introduction.html
WHY from TLOCs connected to the WAN transports AND NOT from the vBond controller?
