Real Lab: Fortinet SD-WAN + IPsec VPN Branch Onboarding (Step-by-Step)
In this video, I demonstrate a real-world Fortinet SD-WAN lab architecture and walk you through a live branch onboarding process using IPsec VPN, by adding a new branch — Kolkata — into an existing hub-and-spoke network.
This lab simulates how enterprises deploy secure SD-WAN connectivity across multiple branches using FortiGate firewalls.
What you will learn:
Fortinet SD-WAN architecture in real-world scenarios
How IPsec VPN tunnels are used for secure branch connectivity
Step-by-step branch onboarding process
Routing between hub and branch using SD-WAN
Firewall policy configuration for secure traffic flow
End-to-end verification and troubleshooting
