    Study Notes

    Packet Duplication in SD-WAN

    • Packet duplication is required when using IPsec tunnels in SD-WAN, and it helps reduce data loss.
    • Duplicate packets are sent through multiple links to ensure delivery in case of packet loss on one link.

    Packet Deduplication

    • When packet deduplication is enabled on the receiving FortiGate, it removes duplicate packets, preventing data duplication.
    • The goal of enabling packet deduplication is to prevent data duplication on the receiving end.

    Forward Error Correction (FEC)

    • FEC provides an efficient way to reduce data loss on IPsec tunnels by duplicating packets.

    Configuring Packet Duplication

    • Packet duplication can be restricted to SD-WAN rules, which helps optimize bandwidth usage.
    • Packet duplication rules can be configured to duplicate traffic based on detected applications.

    IPsec Exchange Interface

    • The IPsec exchange interface feature allows exchanging IPsec interface IP addresses without IKE mode config.
    • The advantage of using the IPsec exchange interface feature is that it does not require IKE mode config.

    Configuring Packet Duplication Rules

    • The spoke FortiGate is configured to always duplicate packets.
    • The duplication rule on the spoke FortiGate instructs FortiGate to duplicate packets.
    • The hub FortiGate's duplication rule instructs FortiGate to duplicate packets only when necessary.

    On-Demand Packet Duplication

    • On-demand packet duplication is triggered when packet loss is detected on a link.
    • FortiGate determines the quality of the outgoing interface for on-demand packet duplication based on link quality.

    Forced Packet Duplication

    • Forced packet duplication is triggered when packet loss is detected on all links, and it sends duplicate packets on all available links.
    • The outgoing interface for packet duplication is determined by the duplication rule configuration.
