Routes

This section allows you to perform diagnostics and monitor route information on NGFW.

To view all routes contained in the default router, use the following command:

Admin@nodename> show network route

Parameter

Description

ip

IP address to which you want to display the route.

node-name

Select a cluster node.

connected

Routes to networks connected directly to NGFW interfaces. These routes are marked with a C in the route list.

kernel

Display the routes added by the administrator. These routes are marked with a K in the route list.

summary

Number of active connections and FIB (Forwarding Information Base) records.

ospf

Display routes received using the OSPF dynamic routing protocol. These routes are marked with a О in the route list.

bgp

Display the routes received using the BGP dynamic routing protocol. These routes are marked with an В in the route list.

OSPF Monitoring

To diagnose and monitor OSPF, use the following commands. Display OSPF information:

Admin@nodename> show network ospf ... Admin@nodename> show network ospf <parameter>

Parameter

Description

node-name

Select a cluster node.

virtual-router

Virtual router for which you want to preview general OSPF information: (<vrf-name> | all).

route

Display routes received using the OSPF dynamic routing protocol.

database

Display the following information:

  • Router Link States: routers use Type 1 Link State Advertisement (LSA) (Router LSA) packets to send information within the same zone; they are used to transmit information about their own and their neighbors' interfaces to their neighboring routers in the same zone.

  • Network Link States: a Designated Router (DR) generates LSA Type 2 (Network LSA) packets to describe all routers connected directly to its segment.

  • Summary Link States: Area Border Routers (ABR) generate LSA Type 3 (Summary LSA) packets. These packets contain summary messages about the directly connected zone, report information to other zones to which the ABR is connected, and are transmitted to multiple zones throughout the network.

  • ASBR-Summary Link States: LSA Type 4 (ASBR Summary LSA) packets report the presence of an Autonomous System Border Router (ASBR) in other areas.

neighbor

Display information on neighbors:

  • Neighbor ID (router ID).

  • Priority. The router with the highest priority becomes the Designated Router, DR. If router priorities are equal, the router with the highest ID will be selected.

  • Status, such as Full/DR, Full/BDR, Full/Drother.

  • Idle interval: the time interval before the connection to the OSPF neighbor is terminated if no Hello packet has been received.

  • IP address of the interface to which the neighbor is connected.

  • Interface on which the router adjacency is formed.

Additional parameters:

  • interface-name: display neighbors with which adjacency is established on the specified interface

  • all: display the table with all neighbors.

  • detail: display detailed information about neighbors.

interface

Display OSPF interface information.

Additional parameters:

  • interface-name: display information about the specified interface

  • traffic: display the statistics of transmitted and received OSPF packets (Hello, Database Description, Link State Request, Link State Update, Link State Acknowledgment).

border-routers

Display information about border routers.

Restart the OSPF process:

Admin@nodename> clear network ospf <parameter>

Parameter

Description

interface-name

The interface name.

node-name

Select a cluster node.

virtual-router

Virtual router on which you want to restart OSPF (<vrf-name> | all).

interface

Interface on which you want to restart the OSPF process (<interface-name>).

neighbor

Select neighbors for which the process will be restarted.

BGP Monitoring

To diagnose and monitor BGP, use the following commands.

Display the router's BGP table:

Admin@nodename> show network bgp ... Admin@nodename> show network bgp <parameter>

Parameter

Description

node-name

Select a cluster node.

virtual-router

Virtual router for which you want to display routes (<vrf-name> | all).

ip

IP address to which you want to display the route.

statistics

Display BGP statistics.

neighbors

Display information about BGP neighbors (to display information about a specific neighbor, provide its IP address).

Additional parameters available to use to specify a neighbor:

  • received-routes: the routes received before the incoming policy is applied to them (Routemap and filters)

  • advertised-routes: the routes advertised to the specified neighbor.

summary

Display summary information on neighbors.

Re-request information from BGP neighbors (TCP session break):

Admin@nodename> clear network bgp

Available parameters:

Parameter

Description

ip

IP address of the neighbor to which the connection will be interrupted to update information.

node-name

Select a cluster node.

virtual-router

Name of the virtual router to which the BGP neighbor belongs.

In case the neighbor devices support the Route Refresh method you can send a special message like ROUTE REFRESH instead of reinitializing the entire session with the neighbor. You can send this message to update information without interrupting the routing.

To update information without interrupting the session with the neighbor, use the following command:

Admin@nodename> clear network bgp ip <neighbor-ip> soft in | out Admin@nodename> clear network bgp virtual-router <vrf-name> ip <neighbor-ip> soft in | out

RIP Monitoring

To diagnose and monitor RIP, use the following commands.

Display RIP information from the default router table (network address received via RIP, Next Hop address, route metric, route tag to separate internal and external routes, and timeout to invalidate the route if no information about it has been received):

Admin@nodename> show network rip ... Admin@nodename> show network rip <parameter>

Additional available parameters:

Parameter

Description

node-name

Select a cluster node.
