Lists the requirements needed to extend network visibility using SD-WAN Manager and Cisco ThousandEyes.


To extend network visibility using SD-WAN Manager and Cisco ThousandEyes, ensure you meet these prerequisites.

  • Before deploying the Cisco ThousandEyes Enterprise agent, create an account on the Cisco ThousandEyes portal and obtain an account group token. The token authenticates the agent with Cisco ThousandEyes and associates it with the correct account.

For information on obtaining the account group token, see Where Can I Get the Account Group Token? on Cisco ThousandEyes Documentation portal.

  • The Cisco ThousandEyes Enterprise agent requires DNS name resolution and HTTP/HTTPS connectivity to discover and register with the Cisco ThousandEyes portal. Ensure that this connectivity exists before deploying the agent by configuring the appropriate firewall rules, NAT settings, upstream routing, and other related settings.

For more information on the required firewall configuration, see Firewall Configuration for Enterprise Agents on Cisco ThousandEyes Documentation portal.
