Abstract

Techniques and architecture are described for reusing QoS policy instances for groups of software defined wide area network (SDWAN)-based transport locators (TLOCs) sharing the same attributes. For example, the attributes may include subscriber transport bandwidth (e.g., a transport bandwidth based on a user profile), QoS policy template profile information, transport locator color, etc. All of this information may be shared across the SDWAN fabric and may be available in the overlay management protocol (OMP) TLOC database.
