At the 4 minute make you indicated that the WAN edge can receive any configurations from VManage. Is it not the responsibility of Vsmart to push configuration/policy updates down to the WAN edge from VManage?

informative. But you did not cover how exactly a hole punching is done on the firewall to allow the connection and that would have cleared up vbond's role as a STUN server.
