Automatic Return Routing (Beta)

Nov 06, 2025

Cloudflare One Cloudflare WAN

Magic WAN now supports Automatic Return Routing (ARR), allowing customers to configure Magic on-ramps (IPsec/GRE/CNI) to learn the return path for traffic flows without requiring static routes.

Key benefits:

Route-less mode: Static or dynamic routes are optional when using ARR.
Overlapping IP space support: Traffic originating from customer sites can use overlapping private IP ranges.
Symmetric routing: Return traffic is guaranteed to use the same connection as the original on-ramp.

This feature is currently in beta and requires the new Unified Routing mode (beta).

For configuration details, refer to Configure Automatic Return Routing.
