A feature known as Business Policy is offered by VMware, which is an upgraded Quality of Service platform. At both the Profile and Edge levels, SD-WAN Orchestrator gives you the ability to set business policy rules. The development of business policy rules is accomplished through the utilization of several parameters, including but not limited to the source IP address/port, the destination IP address/port, the domain name, the address and port group, applications, application categories, and DSCP tags. All levels of operators, partners, and administrators have the ability to draft a policy for the company.
Configuration of Business Policies
To enable or disable traffic, you may configure matching parameters and an action to be executed when they are satisfied in order to construct business policy rules.
Required conditions
Make sure the network devices are configured with the correct IP addresses.
