WirePlanner: Fast, Secure and Cost-Efficient Route Configuration for SD-WAN
Yunxi Shen, Yongxiang Wu, Junxian Shen, Han Zhang

TL;DR
WirePlanner is a novel SD-WAN solution that quickly finds cost-effective, low-latency routes and configures secure WireGuard tunnels, improving QoS and cost-efficiency over traditional IPSec-based methods.
Contribution
It introduces a new algorithm for route discovery that optimizes latency and cost, considering different payment models and ensuring secure data transmission with WireGuard.
Findings
Reduces route setup time compared to IPSec-based SD-WAN.
Optimizes routes within budget constraints while minimizing latency.
Provides secure data transmission using WireGuard.
Abstract
As enterprises increasingly migrate their applications to the cloud, the demand for secure and cost-effective Wide Area Networking (WAN) solutions for data transmission between branches and data centers grows. Among these solutions, Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN) has emerged as a promising approach. However, existing SD-WAN implementations largely rely on IPSec tunnels for data encryption between edge routers, resulting in drawbacks such as extended setup times and limited throughput. Additionally, the SD-WAN control plane rarely takes both latency and monetary cost into consideration when determining routes between nodes, resulting in unsatisfactory Quality of Service (QoS). We propose WirePlanner, an SD-WAN solution that employs a novel algorithm for path discovery, optimizing both latency and cost, and configures WireGuard tunnels for secure and efficient data…
