On WatchGuard devices you can choose between BOVPN and BOVPN Virtual Interface. I can’t wrap my head around, which one is policy based and route based. Both require you to set routes to the remote networks and configure ACL’s to allow the traffic. Can someone explain me the differences between these two types and match them to WatchGuard‘s Tunnels?
Thank you, but why is it called policy based when I need to configure policies for both tunnel types?
Policy based routing was the method to choose what external interface to use on a policy when there were multiple external interfaces.
It has since been replaced by SD-WAN in newer Fireware versions.
