Introduction to devices

The platform has integrations with network virtualization systems to offer features such as network blueprints, self-service firewall and load balancer policies, NAT, and VPNs. The platform uses Devices to define integrations with external systems.

Devices do the following:

• register the endpoint and credentials of the network virtualization system in a private cloud datacenter

• contain a list of the virtual datacenters that the network virtualization system is managing.

A device can be created:

1. For a datacenter

2. For a single enterprise

A device belonging to a specific enterprise has a higher priority than a device for all enterprises.

The device functionality is transparent to the cloud user, who will automatically have self-service access to networks, and firewall and load balancer policies.
