Question


Does Prisma SD-WAN support flow asymmetry?

Environment


  • Prisma SD-WAN
  • Prisma SASE
  • Cloud Strata Manager
  • ION

Answer


  1. Prisma SD-WAN has multiple underlay and overlay, and egress traffic is managed by the path policy configuration, however, the return traffic may choose a different path as per the remote device's routing configuration. In such cases, flow asymmetry could happen
  2. ION supports flow asymmetry, meaning it does not drop any traffic
  3. ION has the intelligence to correct the flow asymmetry and keep the traffic on a single path to avoid any performance issue
