A.

The feature in Cisco SD-WAN that provisions WAN Edge routers automatically in an AWS cloud environment is Cloud OnRamp.

Cloud OnRamp is a software-defined network service that provides secure and optimized connectivity between enterprise branch locations and SaaS applications, IaaS workloads, and other public cloud services. It simplifies and automates the deployment of SD-WAN policies and services across multiple cloud environments, including AWS.

When using Cloud OnRamp in AWS, the SD-WAN controller leverages the AWS APIs to automate the provisioning of WAN Edge routers as virtual instances within the customer's AWS environment. The SD-WAN controller provisions the routers based on pre-defined templates, which include the necessary configuration settings and security policies. Once the routers are provisioned, the SD-WAN controller automatically connects them to the SD-WAN fabric and configures them to optimize traffic flows to and from the customer's AWS workloads.

In summary, Cloud OnRamp is the feature in Cisco SD-WAN that automates the provisioning of WAN Edge routers in an AWS cloud environment. It simplifies and streamlines the deployment of SD-WAN policies and services and enables secure and optimized connectivity to cloud-based applications and workloads.
