Understanding TLOC

TLOC stands for Transport Locator. In Cisco (Viptela) SD-WAN, a TLOC is an attribute that identifies a WAN transport tunnel endpoint on an edge router, uniquely defined by the combination of system IP address, transport color (link type), and encapsulation. TLOCs are advertised through the Overlay Management Protocol (OMP) and are used to establish and route traffic across the SD-WAN overlay fabric.
