Workgroup Bridges and DNA/SD-Access

[kdaniel]

Should wired clients connected to a workgroup bridge have any issues on a network using Cisco DNA and SD-Access?  I'm just curious if identification of clients or applying an access policy to those clients behind the WGB would be a problem.  A current customer is contemplating migration of their network in SD direction, and they have many WGB's.

They are supported

there not much detail of how the policy would actually work in the SDA environment

Thanks for that, Haydn. Very helpful PDF.

I think it would be problem, if you know the exact model of switch, then go to this link and look for compatibility with SDA solution.

https://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/td/docs/Website/enterprise/sda_compatibility_matrix/index.html

for DNAC select recommended version, for Fabric role select edge, it will give you a list of devices, if you see your device in this list it will work and (Trustsec) policy will be pushed , if not then i dont think it will work.

Also take a note of version

hope this helps

Did anyone actually try this and see if it works? We have several WGB's that need to be cutover to SDA (somehow).
