Local Internet Breakout

[Bruno182]

Hi all,

I'm starting now to try to understand better SD-WAN, but I'm struggling with the concept of Local Internet Breakout. Could you please share some expanation of this concept?

thanks

In short and in just few words: this is default route pointing to the internet with NAT enabled on outside interface on the local branch routers (aka DIA) in contrast with other approach when default route is pointing to DC/Hub/head-office/central over overlay tunnel and centralized internet access is being used. Such 2 approaches are not unique/specific to SD-WAN.
