Why each option
For Cisco SD-WAN Cloud onRamp for SaaS, when a branch's SaaS traffic is steered through a central site for internet access, the central site is a Gateway and the branch is a Client Site.
Designating H.Q as DIA means it has direct internet access but doesn't define its role in steering traffic for other sites; Branch C as a Client Site is correct for receiving steered traffic, but H.Q's role is specifically a Gateway in this context.
Designating Branch as DIA would mean it continues to reach SaaS Cloud directly, which contradicts the requirement of utilizing H.Q site for SaaS traffic.
Designating H.Q as Client Site is incorrect as it is providing the optimized internet egress for the branch, making it the Gateway. Branch as DIA contradicts the design.
In the Cisco SD-WAN Cloud onRamp for SaaS feature, when a branch (Branch C) is configured to utilize a headquarters site (H.Q) for optimized access to SaaS applications, the H.Q site acts as a "Gateway" and the branch site (Branch C) is designated as a "Client Site." The Client Site steers its SaaS traffic to the Gateway site, which then provides the optimized internet egress.
