Methods, systems, and computer readable media for providing a multi-tenant software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) node

A system for providing a multi-tenant software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) node, the system comprising:

• a first network node in a service provider network for providing at least one service to multiple tenants, the first network node comprising:
• at least one processor;
• and
• a memory, wherein the first network node is configured for:
• generating, using input from an administrator of the service provider network, user configuration information for a first tenant, wherein the user configuration information includes a security key for allowing the first tenant to configure aspects of the first network node and a total bandwidth limit associated with the first tenant;
• sending, to the first tenant, at least some of the user configuration information;
• receiving, from the first tenant, first configuration information for configuring a first conduit for tunneling communications between the service provider network and a first site associated with the first tenant's SD-WAN;
• configuring, using the first configuration information, the first conduit for tunneling communications between the service provider network and the first site, wherein the first network node is associated with a plurality of conduits, wherein a second conduit of the plurality of conduits is at least in part configured by a second tenant and not the first tenant;
• tunneling, via the first conduit, communications between the service provider network and the first site;
• and
• maintaining traffic monitoring information associated with each conduit, site, and/or tenant.

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer executable instructions embodied in the non-transitory computer readable medium that when executed by at least one processor of at least one computer cause the at least one computer to perform steps comprising:

• at a first network node in a service provider network for providing at least one service to multiple tenants:
• generating, using input from an administrator of the service provider network, user configuration information for a first tenant, wherein the user configuration information includes a security key for allowing the first tenant to configure aspects of the first network node and a total bandwidth limit associated with the first tenant;
• sending, to the first tenant, at least some of the user configuration information;
• receiving, from the first tenant, first configuration information for configuring a first conduit for tunneling communications between the service provider network and a first site associated with the first tenant's SD-WAN;
• configuring, using the first configuration information, the first conduit for tunneling communications between the service provider network and the first site, wherein the first network node is associated with a plurality of conduits, wherein a second conduit of the plurality of conduits is at least in part configured by a second tenant and not the first tenant;
• tunneling, via the first conduit, communications between the service provider network and the first site;
• and
• maintaining traffic monitoring information associated with each conduit, site, and/or tenant.
