vpn0 is a vedge term. The catalyst router global vrf is synonymous with vpn0.

Hi,
when you configure router from vManage via template/config groups you put VPN number 0 which means transport VPN.
But in IOS XE (Cisco IOS) translates VPN 0 configuration to global configuration mode (global VRF). That's why, if you want to do something in tranport VPN in CLI, you don't put any VRF/VPN number for that configuration.
Note that, even there is no "VPN" keyword in IOS XE CLI, it is "VRF".
Example configuration for VPN0 and VPN1 (or any other number):
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 100.100.100.100 > this is considered in global VRF (no VRF) or VPN0 in SD-WAN terminology.
ip route vrf 1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 100.100.100.100 > this is considered in VRF1 or VPN1 in SD-WAN terminology.
