3.79.1. Route

Description

A route defines what interface and gateway to use in order to reach a specified network.

Properties

Name
Specifies a symbolic name for the object. (Optional)
Interface
Specifies which interface packets destined for this route shall be sent through.
Gateway
Specifies the IP address of the next router hop used to reach the destination network. If the network is directly connected to the firewall interface, no gateway address is specified. (Optional)
LocalIP
The IP address specified here will be automatically published on the corresponding interface. This address will also be used as the sender address in ARP queries. If no address is specified, the firewall's interface IP address will be used. (Optional)
MTU
Specifies the size (in bytes) of the largest packet excluding any Ethernet headers, that can be passed using the route. (Default: InheritFromInterface)
AdvertiseIP6
Enable IPv6 Router Advertisement announcing for this route. (Default: No)
AdvertisedValidLifetime
The value to be placed in the Valid Lifetime in the Prefix Information option, in seconds. The designated value of all 1's (0xffffffff) represents infinity. (Default: 2592000)
AdvertisedAsOnLinkFlag
The value to be placed in the on-link flag (L-bit) field in the Prefix Information option. Indicated that this prefix can be used for on-link determination. (Default: Yes)
AdvertisedPreferredLifetime
The value to be placed in the Preferred Lifetime in the Prefix Information option, in seconds. The designated value of all 1's (0xffffffff) represents infinity. (Default: 604800)
AdvertisedAsAutonomousFlag
The value to be placed in the Autonomous Flag field in the Prefix Information option. Indicates that the advertised prefix can be used for stateless address configuration. (Default: Yes)
RouteMonitor
Control the status (enabled/disabled) of the route through the use of various monitoring methods. (Default: No)
MonitorHosts
Monitor route through the availability of a set of hosts. (Default: No)
MonitorGateway
Monitor the gateway of the route. (Default: No)
GatewayMonitorInterval
Delay in milliseconds between each attempt to monitor the gateway. (Optional)
MinReachability
Minimum number of hosts required to be reachable for the route to be enabled. (Default: One)
GracePeriod
Delay in seconds after system start before starting to monitor the route. (Optional)
GratuitousARPNDOnChange
Send gratuitous ARP/ND on failover to alert hosts about changed interface Ethernet and IP addresses. (Default: Yes)
Network
Specifies the network address for this route.
Metric
Specifies the metric for this route. (Default: 100)
ProxyARPAllInterfaces
Always select all interfaces, including new ones, for publishing routes via Proxy ARP. (Default: No)
ProxyARPInterfaces
Specifies the interfaces on which the firewall should publish routes via Proxy ARP. (Optional)
Comments
Text describing the current object. (Optional)
[Note] Note
If no Index is specified when creating an instance of this type, the object will be placed last in the list and the Index will be equal to the length of the list.

3.79.1.1. MonitoredHost

Description

Specify a host and a monitoring method.

Properties

MonitoringMethod
Monitoring method. (Default: ICMP)
IPAddress
IP address of host.
OriginatorIP
Originator/source IP when monitoring the host. (Optional)
HostMonitorInterval
Delay in milliseconds between each monitor attempt. (Optional)
Samples
Required number of monitoring samples/attempts before determining the status of the host. (Default: 10)
MaxFailedSamples
The maximum number of failed samples/attempts before the host is marked as unreachable. (Default: 2)
MaxLatency
Maximum average latency before the host is marked as unreachable. (Default: 800)
ReachabilityRequired
Specifies whether the host is required to be reachable for host monitoring to be successful. (Default: No)
Comments
Text describing the current object. (Optional)
[Note] Note
If no Index is specified when creating an instance of this type, the object will be placed last in the list and the Index will be equal to the length of the list.

3.79.2. HARoute

Description

A HA enabled route. Can be set individually for each HA node.

Properties

Name
Specifies a symbolic name for the object. (Optional)
MasterInterface
Specifies which interface, on the Master node of an HA cluster, packets destined for this route shall be sent through.
SlaveInterface
Specifies which interface, on the Slave node of an HA cluster, packets destined for this route shall be sent through.
Gateway
Specifies the IP address of the next router hop used to reach the destination network. If the network is directly connected to the firewall interface, no gateway address is specified. (Optional)
LocalIP
The IP address specified here will be automatically published on the corresponding interface. This address will also be used as the sender address in ARP queries. If no address is specified, the firewall's interface IP address will be used. (Optional)
MTU
Specifies the size (in bytes) of the largest packet excluding any Ethernet headers, that can be passed using the route. (Default: InheritFromInterface)
Network
Specifies the network address for this route.
Metric
Specifies the metric for this route. (Default: 100)

DestinationInterface
Specifies an interface which filtered routes need to match. (Optional)
DestinationNetworkExactly
Specifies a network range which filtered routes need to match exactly. (Optional)

Specifies a metric interval which filtered routes need to be within. (Optional)
LogEnabled
Enable logging. (Default: Yes)
Comments
Text describing the current object. (Optional)
