Which two SD-WAN components are found in the Management Plane?

The management plane in an SD-WAN architecture is responsible for the overall orchestrating and management functions, enabling configuration, monitoring, and policy management for the network.

The vManage component plays a crucial role in this plane as the centralized network management system. It provides a user interface for network operators to manage the SD-WAN environment, configure policies, and monitor network performance.

Additionally, vAnalytics contributes to the management plane by analyzing and optimizing network performance. It provides insights on application usage, traffic patterns, and overall network health, helping administrators make informed decisions and adjustments to their SD-WAN setups.

In contrast, other components mentioned, like vEdge and vSmart, primarily operate in the data plane or control plane rather than the management plane, focusing on delivering traffic and enforcing policies rather than the overarching management and analytics functions.
