Abstract
Systems, devices, and methods are discussed for leveraging SD-WAN's property of redundant independent paths to enable out of band key exchange using the collection of available paths, dynamically managing link failures to keep the separation whenever possible, and/or signaling availability of quantum-safe data transfer to SD-WAN to enable quantum-safety to be used in SD-WAN policy decisions.
