When configuring a path policy in SD-WAN, what is the purpose of setting a path quality threshold?

To set the encryption strength for traffic on that path

To determine which applications are allowed on a specific path

To define the maximum bandwidth a path can carry

To specify the minimum latency, jitter, and packet loss a path must meet to be considered usable

What is the primary purpose of NAT policies in an SD-WAN environment?

To select the best path for traffic

To translate addresses for traffic traversing the network

To encrypt traffic between sites

To prioritize traffic based on application

What is the primary function of a security policy in an SD-WAN environment?

To control which transport path traffic uses

To inspect and control traffic based on applications and users

To allocate bandwidth to different classes of traffic

To encrypt traffic between sites

In SD-WAN, what does a path policy primarily influence?

Which security profiles are applied to traffic

Whether traffic is allowed to enter the SD-WAN fabric

Which transport path traffic uses to reach its destination

How traffic is prioritized within a single transport link

What is the purpose of tuning performance policy thresholds in SD-WAN?

To adjust the sensitivity of path degradation detection to match application requirements

To change the encryption strength for the path

To define which users can access the network

To set the maximum bandwidth for each application
