The IESG has received a request from the Routing Area Working Group WG (rtgwg) to consider the following document: - 'Multi-segment SD-WAN via Cloud DCs' <draft-ietf-rtgwg-multisegment-sdwan-13.txt> as Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2026-07-08. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document describes a method for seamlessly interconnecting geographically separated SD-WAN segments via a Cloud Backbone without requiring Cloud Gateways (GWs) to decrypt and re-encrypt traffic. By encapsulating IPsec- encrypted payloads within GENEVE headers (RFC 8926), the approach enables Cloud GWs to forward encrypted traffic directly between distant Customer Premises Equipment (CPEs). This reduces processing overhead, improves scalability, and preserves the confidentiality of enterprise data while ensuring secure and efficient multi-segment SD-WAN connectivity.
