• If your org is on a Global Edge deployment, you will see a Global Edge network inside your Service Tunnel configuration (permanently); if you don’t add any configurations to the Global Edge Network, no data will flow through the Global Edge, but it will still appear, since your org is enabled for the Global Edge.

• If your org is on a Private Edge deployment (i.e., you have a self-hosted Access Tier set up in your private environment), you will be able to select that Access Tier as a network to configure traffic routing through that Access Tier.

• You can have both Private and Global Edge deployments within the same Service Tunnel: Private Edge is useful when admins need to track the traffic from an end user’s device via their own data center; if admin wants Banyan to do the tracking (via IP allowing/blocking), Global Edge is useful.

• Admins can select from Access Tiers and/or Connectors as networks.

• If a Connector is selected, it will be populated within the Global Edge Network container.

• If an Access Tier is selected, it will be populated within its own container named after the selected Access Tier.

• Any public traffic (e.g., apps, domains, or IPs) will only route through our Global Edge Network (i.e., this traffic is confined to the internet and does not interact with your Connector).

• When an end user connected to the Service Tunnel tries to access private resources, IPs, or domains, their traffic will be routed to a Connector that services the relevant IP/domain.

• By default, all public traffic is excluded from the Service Tunnel: When public apps, domains, and IP ranges are included, they are routed via the Service Tunnel; when public apps, domains, and IP ranges are excluded, you are delineating a subset of the included public apps, domains, or IP ranges that you want to exclude - or block the Service Tunnel from routing to.

Access Policies can be applied to your Service Tunnel. Access Policies that are applied to Service Tunnels specifically are called Tunnel Policies. When applied, these policies enforce authorization rules that specify which clients and what corresponding Trust Level can access protected corporate resources.

1.1 Navigate from Private Access > Access Policies > + Create Policy.

1.2 Select the Tunnel Policy template to create a new policy.

1.3 Name your policy.

1.4 Under Policy Definition, enter policy attributes to determine security controls, including the following inputs:

• Set the allowed Role(s)
• Set the allowed TrustLevel
• Set the allowed Protocols
• Set the allowed CIDRs
• Set the allowed Ports

2.1 Navigate from Private Access > Service Tunnels, and then select + Add Service Tunnel.

General Information

2.2 Enter your Service Tunnel Name and a description (e.g., Access to Datacenter).

Network Settings

2.3 Select + Add Network, and a dropdown with an Access Tiers category (first) and a Connectors category (second) will appear.

• If you’re setting up a self-hosted Access Tier (private edge) for your Service Tunnel, select an Access Tier from the dropdown;

• If you’re using a Global Edge Access Tier for your Service Tunnel, then select a Connector from the dropdown.

Note: Admins can add multiple self-hosted Access Tiers and/or Connectors to one Service Tunnel configuration; each Access Tier selected is considered its own self-contained ‘Network’ within the Service Tunnel; each Connector added is part of the same Global Edge Network. If selecting multiple Access Tiers, ensure that there are no overlapping CIDR ranges amongst them. If your Access Tiers’ CIDR ranges overlap, you’ll need to configure two separate Service Tunnels to accommodate your purposes.

2.4 For each Access Tier (Private Edge) or Connector container (Global Edge), configure which public applications, public domains, and public IP ranges can be reached (Include) or not reached (Exclude) via your Service Tunnel.

Note: In order to save your Service Tunnel, it must have at least one defined route (an included public app, IP, or domain OR a network is added that contains private routes).

Assignment Settings

2.5 Determine who will have access to this Service Tunnel by selecting a Tunnel Policy from the Attach a Policy dropdown. Instructions on how to create a Tunnel Policy are detailed in Step 1.

2.6 Set the policy to Enforcing mode.

2.7 Optional: Enable Connect on Login. Admins can configure which Service Tunnels automatically connect when end users log into their apps.
