Explanation

Cisco SD-WAN uses unique per-device feature templates to allow centralized, consistent configuration pushed to individual devices while maintaining device-specific parameters. It centralizes policy distribution across the network via the vSmart controller, and employs DTLS/TLS authenticated and encrypted tunnels for secure data plane and control plane communications - these are core architectural pillars of the SD-WAN solution. Manual secure tunnel configuration is a characteristic of traditional WAN (e.g., DMVPN/IPsec) rather than SD-WAN, which automates tunnel establishment.
